Do you miss the pastel-colored facial tissue ("Kleenex") and bathroom tissue we used to have?

Asked by Jeruba (55829points) August 18th, 2016

This is question 3 of 3.

I’m not going to argue for something that might have been bad for the environment, like the dyes in paper products, but I do miss them. When tissues have been such a major part of my life, I have welcomed some color and variety.

I like the colored ones for the same reason that I like colored bedsheets and towels: it’s just a relief from visual monotony. Now that they’re all white again, just as they used to be when I was little, they’re wearisomely boring.

Does anybody else even pay any attention to this sort of thing, or is it just my eccentricity?
