Cashmere Toilet Paper?

All those opposed to chafing raise your hands. Now all those who would invest in cashmere toilet paper raise your hands.

I really wish I could see who's all hands were raised.

Regardless, cashmere toilet paper is real. A supermarket in the UK is selling the super luxurious 'loo rolls' as part of their premium bathroom tissue collection geared towards their most discerning customers. It's unclear exactly how much cashmere is used in the making of every square but we do know that no actual fibers are included -- instead oils extracted from cashmere goat hair is used to coat the t.p. and make it softer. A pack of 4 rolls will cost you £2.29 (compared to £1.19 for the non-cashmere stuff).

First human bed warmers and now cashmere toilet paper, what's going on over there in the UK?

Oil from fibers? My sister raises cashmere producing goats and there isn't any oil in their fiber. BTW, there is not a cashmere breed. All goats have the capacity to produce cashmere, some more than others.

Worth every cent I am sure. I can't wait for it to be selling at my local grocery.

At that price it is a bargain.

However, there is no mention as to how many count of ply.....?

All goats have the capacity to produce cashmere, some more than others. Her goats are from feral goats from Australia. Lives in NY. No, but there used to be a magazine. She stopped her subscription, so don't know if it's still around. Was called CashMirror.
