The stars of Australian current affairs show The Project were left less than impressed by a moment that aired on breakfast television across the pond.
During Monday’s episode, the cast viewed a clip from British program This Morning, in which the presenters were shown a roll of reusable toilet paper.
The cloth pieces, which retail for £17.98 (AUD $35) for a pack of two rolls, were offered up as an eco friendly solution.
The cloths are used, then placed in a container of bicarbonate soda, before going through the wash, to be cleaned and used again.
They were touted as being ‘especially good for babies’ as a ‘babies’ number twos aren’t as bad as adults’.

The reusable loo roll horrified both the ITV hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley, who appeared visibly stunned, and the cast of The Project back in Australia.
‘Oh boy, now you have to separate, your colours, whites and s****es’ joked comedian Sam Taunton.
‘Why aren’t they all just brown, why are they different colours?’ asked his co-host Sarah Harris.
The Project cast were in stitches over the segment, but co-host Steve Price was not amused, demanding, ‘Can we move on?’

Several businesses offer reusable toilet paper, including Australian brand Earths Tribe, whose Family Cloth rolls sell for $35 for a pack of 20 pieces.
It seems This Morning viewers were also unimpressed with the toilet paper.
One person commented on YouTube: ‘Get a bidet, they’re all over Europe. No poo cloth please’.
Another said: ‘Surely you’d at least make it brown if you had to produce this product! To hide the stains?!’
Yet another chimed in: ‘Reusability is gonna drive the whole world crazy’.
Some felt the solution could work just fine, however.
‘I used a sock before and washed it fine, lol’ offered one viewer.
