Apparently super common and a religious thing.

Never thought I'd feel so warm towards a toilet brush before I read that story.

What kind of religion requires a diet that creates logs that need to be manually broken up to flush? I know US style toilets are more prone to blocking but that seems absurd to be so common.

Dog think it's the consequence of diet it's just ideas of cleanliness or it's the tool they traditionally had before toilet brushes were invented (I'm spitballing here)

That was so long ago, and still to this day pops into my head.

Though I had no idea it was a religious thing! That’s news to me, though I’m not sure I want to Google and learn more about it.
