Meet Kinah, a woman with a unique and surprising habit – she consumes up to four rolls of toilet paper every day, a practice she has maintained for over two decades. This unusual behavior has left her spending a significant amount, around $2,700 annually, solely on toilet paper, quite different from the average American who spends $182 per year.
Kinah's affinity for toilet paper knows no bounds, as she enjoys indulging in it while at work, driving in her car, or even during her visits to the nail salon. Interestingly, she prefers the thinner one-ply sheets, finding them easier to consume, akin to “eating a pb and j [peanut butter and jelly sandwich] without the crust,” relishing the satisfying “crunch.”
Although her fiancé is not thrilled about her peculiar habit, Kinah remains unwavering in her love for toilet paper. She views it as a guilt-free indulgence, with “zero calories and no hangover” to worry about.
Despite attracting curious stares and even being recorded by intrigued onlookers, Kinah is unfazed by others' opinions. She believes that everyone has their eccentricities, and hers happens to be consuming toilet paper.
If you're intrigued by unusual compulsive behaviors, you can catch a glimpse of Kinah's story on TLC's “My Strange Addiction: Still Addicted?” airing Wednesdays.
It's essential to note that Kinah's behavior falls under a condition called Pica, a feeding disorder characterized by the consumption of non-food substances without any nutritional value.
