The supermarket was my first stop when we got home from Donegal this afternoon, to stock up on kitchen supplies.
As a scanned the shelves I had to do a double take as I passed the toilet paper because I thought my eyes were deceiving me. But I had seen correctly, toilet paper comes now in rhubarb and raspberry flavour. WHY?
Do you have a preferred flavour?

That is the strangest thing I have ever heard, I checked and the Internet says
The fruity scent can help mask unpleasant odors, contributing to a more pleasant environment.

Have you ever eaten a Rhubarb and Raspberry crumble?
All the lovely juices bubbling away on top.
Well now I won't have too cook it.
I will simply buy Cushelle Raspberry and Rhubarb toilet paper and sniff on it , before using
