All biodegradable with no added pollutants, as long as the tissue isn't coloured. I suspect you probably use recycled non coloured. If you could inhale enough pollutants to worry about the snot, I'd be more worried about your lungs.

Yesss, not to put too fine a point on it!
We have been composting tissues to no ill effect for years. ( we just won't mention the 2 foot long mutant cockroaches - there is no evidence that they are linked to the tissues

Ah, but absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Have they really conducted a thorough test against different types of tissue, brands, colorants etc.?Wombat wrote:( we just won't mention the 2 foot long mutant cockroaches - there is no evidence that they are linked to the tissues

I have conducted extensive tests on the neighbours kids and so far the kill ratio is only 30% - with no evidence of monsterism. You just can't beat statistics like that!
