Apparently Much More To Toilet Paper Than Meets The Eye

A patient did some detective work and found the following. I will try to add to this information with other brands:

"I found that Cottonelle Clean Care and Scott Extra soft supposedly have no

ingredients except virgin wood pulp according to Scott."

 

"I also contacted Charmin and they said this is the list for their toilet

paper that I was using":

 

 

Thanks for contacting P&G:

Which type of Charmin is this list of ingredients for? There are many kinds!
And when the Charmin one has 50 ingredients, is it really possible the 2 Scotts brands listed have only 1 ingredient?? esp since one is "Extra Soft."
I want to be sure we're getting correct info. 
Also trying to figure out how to know which TPs are ok to buy now, since there are a million out there!!  Argh. Yet one more thing to manage.
 
And thx to the kindhearted patient who brought this up for us all.
