Hey now- as a guy that DOES use ACTUALLY-flushable wipes (they basically turn into water in seconds, when dunked into a bowl of water)

Just be careful. Read reviews, do research. There’s a brand I buy from Amazon (ugh) that reliably degrades quickly. Meanwhile, the brand I bought from Targets says in big caps- FLUSH ONLY ONE AT A TIME. The hell??
