Pretty soon, people will be using corn cobs, thereby diverting the cobs away from the production of food, leaving people starving everywhere. Not only that, but think of all the water that is used to produce those cobs, when the process of making toilet paper from wood uses no water whatsoever. Another reprehensible aspect of the situation is that if it wasn't for the government subsidies given to produce the cobs, they could not compete in price with toilet paper. Further, the cobs are nowhere near as efficient in the removal of waste due to their narrow shape, the result being that a person gets far less mileage out of an amount of cob equal to a given amount of toilet paper. Then there is the given that the use of cobs causes damage to important parts of the system. Those are only the most glaring deficiencies of cobs relative to toilet paper; I am sure that there are many others.
