What's so special about Japanese cotton?

[Lessifer]

I have this mental picture of you saying all the above while blowing clouds of glowing vapor.

I swear, since I started using this stuff, I no longer need my glasses, haven't had to go to the doctor. Of course I get the occasional blackout where I wake up 200 miles away and my clothes are torn, and there's a distinct path of destruction leading to back to my house, but other than that.

Regular organic cotton is like 4 bucks a bag.

I find the Japanese cotton pads to be a hassle for wicking rta's.

I've tried them, as well as Rayon, and I always go right back to my $4 bag of organic cotton balls.

My wife actually enjoys unrolling them, so it works out nicely.

I use Sally Beauty Supply Salon Coil cotton. Nice aligned fibers in a long untwisted "rope" 45 ft long for under $4.
Works great and looks a lot like the Cotton Bacon stuff. for under $4 I have enough to last me the rest of my life.
Grown in the good ol US of A.

I think in the past year I have used a bit over a foot of it...

I have a bag of Japanese cotton pads. I bought it on Amazon but it was shipped directly from Japan. It was a good buy. The material is very easy to work with. The claim is the product is organic, meaning no pesticides or chemical processes that might get into the vapor. Is it true? Probably. I'll keep buying the product for ease of use.

They don't need pesticides for their cotton they grow it in the area where the reactor melted down.

My wife just outright steals them for whatever it is she does.
