Shaving works too. I've gotten pretty good at getting it clean with a double edge safety razor. About once every couple of weeks keeps the wiping pretty easy.
I used to think the same thing and would have my wife wax me. The razor is much faster, doesn't hurt at all, and accomplishes the goal of keeping my massive ass forest under control.
You don't need to wax your ass if you produce teflon grade poops as asked in this thread.
I found out week long feats of uninterrupted veganism helped, so i'd argue balancing fibre intake is key.
But i'm not doctor, just like the person i just replyed to.
Basically this. Increased gut motility from inflammation reduces the time spent extracting water from your stool, which is exactly counterproductive to the OP’s question.
So it clearly has nothing to do with the spiciness, and just with whatever your digestive system doesn't like about jalapeños (or them being pickled). Why would you agree that spicy food is relevant here when it clearly isn't?
I eat peppers that would make a billy goat puke, no gut issues. It's a matter of getting used to, i.e., burning out, the neurotransmitters that sense capsaicin.
People tend to think hot peppers are rough on the guts, but consider, birds chow them with no issue. No nerves for capsaicin, no problem. See? No cat. No cradle.
Even when there's no obvious sign of poo out still feels wet like I'm wiping normally. I would always want to wipe at least once to get all the sweat and residue from the past few hours that naturally accumulate for just being a human.
I think I rank this question up there with the fate of our universe and the meaning of life. It's just a scientific mystery that is beyond our ability to understand.
Fiber and good gut biome. It can take a while to correct if out of wack.
Eat less frequently. OMAD or skip one meal. Also if you’re drinking a lot of water, supplement with electrolyte capsules (no Gatorade) to maintain optimal function. Reduce or eliminate snacking between meals.
the large intestines absorbs water, electrolytes, and vitamins. It won’t function as well if your shits out of whack.
Sugar free orange flavored metamucil. No joke. Mix up one or two spoonfuls each morning and in the next day or two your shits will start being magical.
Not entirely true. Metamucil, as it contains mostly soluble fiber, will help with regularity, but not with firmness. For firmer stools, thus "no wipe," more INsoluble fiber is the way to go.
Seconding this. It's honestly a little embarrassing how much taking solid shits improves your life. Bathroom breaks are quicker, don't stink as much, and you save a fortune on toilet paper. My diet has since improved to the point where I don't need it, but I still keep a couple tubs of it in the pantry just in case.
It sounds like you may have a a slight case of steattorhea? Do these otter poops float as well?
Because if so, it might be some slight absorption issue. I seem to have one, my poops being very much like you describe. Both, at times.
But when I went on an exclusion diet and then added things back in I realised I apparently have a slight gluten sensitivity. Leaving out gluten and dairy completely made an insane change. Even when I would eat greasy chicken wings, I wouldn't get dem greasy otter poops. Just like, more regular poops, despite what I ate.
I'm not saying you have the same thing, just saying I had that.
Related though, there is I believe like an over-the-counter supplement that's enzymes which help with the absorption / break down of the food, because greasy stools can be a result of too little of some pancreatic enzymes or something.
Am not a trained medical professional, btw, so don't take medical advice from me. But like, things to look up at least.
I guess you missed the question and never had the experience then.
Ever so rarely, sometimes some people have the rare chance to drop a perfectly healthy log, and their very first wipe came back clean.
The question wasn't about whether I should wipe my ass or not, there's always that single safety check wipe anyways. The question was about a better diet with the goal of that hypothetical no-wipe, or at least reducing wipes, poo.
I hear ya there. It's just those rare occasions, where you wipe once, always gotta make sure, and that first wipe shows you were already luckily clean, it just makes ya wonder..
We tried that once. Couldn't get it installed, the original plumbing lines were (and still are) too corroded together. They can't be separated where the water line to the toilet tank is, without lots of work we can't afford.
Also, I didn't ask about wiping vs bidet, I asked about a healthier/cleaner poop diet.
Pretty much illegal (or at least a grey area) in my country. No insurance will cover a bathroom flood issue even if bidet was installed by a licenced pro.
If I had to guess I'd say its based on the amount of water I drink, and maybe coffee poops keeping me regular, less about the diet itself.
Dunno for sure, but I do know I have been so regular it was a surprise when someone told me a bidet reduces toilet paper usage, because I just didn't believe it could do so. That's because it can't in my case. Takes me about as long to poop as it does to pee. Wish I could tell you what exactly I'm doing right but something is right.
But wouldn't you need an extremely solid poop to not have to wipe? I know alcoholics and I know they're making splatter in the toilet. No way in hell you don't have to wipe after that.
Buy or make L.reuteri yoghurt or supplement pill. I'm treating my acid reflux with it. Its truly remarkable how good it makes your tummy and butt exit door feel.
A bidet
I find they’re hard to eat.
You have to eat them one bidet at a time.
You lost me at 3 ngl.
Reading number 3 makes me angry.
Legit hard dealbreaker
You spelled hungry wrong.
They lost me at no. 1

No thanks. Ryobi one blade.
I tried it and it’s not for me. I prefer two stable flat feet on the ground.

Why no spicy food?
I think it's more likely to accelerate digestion and it can give you the runs, not 100% sure on that explanation though
Basically this. Increased gut motility from inflammation reduces the time spent extracting water from your stool, which is exactly counterproductive to the OP’s question.
Wait, can chili do that? I don’t think I’ve experienced that even though my mouth has been on fire numerous times.
Many things increase gut motility. Barbiturates are a famous example of the opposite effect.
It totally depends on the individual, but jalapeños give me diarrhea every time without fail. Spicy food causes general GI upset and inflammation.
If jalapeños give you diarrhea you should try a habanero or a ghost pepper instead.
It is kind of funny that jalapeños sometimes cause my stomach to get upset, but habaneros never do.
So I just thought to duck duck go why and apparently pickled jalepenos are more likely to cause digestive issues and that matches up for me.
So it clearly has nothing to do with the spiciness, and just with whatever your digestive system doesn't like about jalapeños (or them being pickled). Why would you agree that spicy food is relevant here when it clearly isn't?
They didn’t.
Yea, sorry. Turns out it was a different person posting this, and I had somehow assumed it was the same person replying, my bad.

I love me a good Vonnegut reference
You might just be allergic to jalapeños, my cousin.
Only thing id add is staying properly hydrated
Taco Bell takes issue with like half of these.
I actually find low hydration is the best approach. The system removes a lot more moisture from the waste resulting in solid non-smearing packets.
I eat a lot of fruit. Never drink water though. Hate the stuff.
Pretty sure that's not how that works.
I drink hella water and eat nothing but greens, beans, and whole grains... stilly sticky as, well, shit. So there's clearly other factors at play.
I mean, I do season my food, and I have a definite sugar problem. No dairy, I'm intolerant. Probably the sugar, then.
A bidet.
Interesting diet choice..
It's pretty good after the first few bites.
Lots of cheese. Don't need to wipe if your shit is solid as a brick.
Damn you, I have a sealed block of sharp cheddar that I might have to open tonight..
sounds like asking for a hemmaroid.
none, or get a bidet, but you would want to wipe for sanitary reasons anyways.
I think you missed the point.
"No wipe poops" doesn't mean you never wipe again. It means poop that leaves behind insignificant residue.
I periodicity have these, and it's a joy. There's definitely a dietary aspect to it, and moving that direction seems to be the point here.
Thank you for understanding and emphasis on the point of my question 👍

Regular moderate exercise and avoiding just eating mostly sugar has helped me.

Hire a ghost to poop for you. Ezpz
Instructions unclear; shit in sink.
Sugar free orange flavored metamucil. No joke. Mix up one or two spoonfuls each morning and in the next day or two your shits will start being magical.
Citrucel is also pretty great especially if metamucil gives you some gas.
If pooping was an Olympic sport, fiber would be performance enhancing.
Not entirely true. Metamucil, as it contains mostly soluble fiber, will help with regularity, but not with firmness. For firmer stools, thus "no wipe," more INsoluble fiber is the way to go.

My diet has since improved to the point where I don't need it, but I still keep a couple tubs of it in the pantry just in case.
Fry ups make my shit come out like a greased otter. Probably all the oil.
Healthy, fibre heavy foods make a right mess, like tar. Even the travel bidet struggles with that.
It sounds like you may have a a slight case of steattorhea? Do these otter poops float as well?

As a gluten and fructose intolerant person, I agree. That shit makes shit shit.
I deal with it by smoking copious amounts of weed.
Makes nausea and digestive pain a lot easier when you empty your entire guts into the toilet bowl and get off the throne 4 kilos lighter.
Get a bidet
Those don't taste that great though, not for my daily diet anyways..
I need this answer too lol
Thanks for the random response! Most everything you said makes good sense 👍
Nah, no problems wiping here, I just asked as a generic discussion question that I think everyone has some interest in.
You can get close by eating vegan.
Sorry, I don't know enough vegans to sustain my diet..
/s
Clean your ass.
Why?
So you don't smell like shit. Even a terrible parent will teach you at least that much.
I guess you missed the question and never had the experience then.
Ever so rarely, sometimes some people have the rare chance to drop a perfectly healthy log, and their very first wipe came back clean.
The question wasn't about whether I should wipe my ass or not, there's always that single safety check wipe anyways. The question was about a better diet with the goal of that hypothetical no-wipe, or at least reducing wipes, poo.
Then you're right, I misunderstood. Sorry.
To properly answer then, I'd be looking at indigestible or underdigested fats, particularly if it's sticky or hard to clean.
Consistent ghost poops whenever I'm eating vegan consistently.
Mainly because meat gets swapped to beans and other high fibre options
Marry a coprophile.
Colostomy bag
I don't think they're edible
Just stick a straw in it like a capri-sun.
🤮
🤢🤮
wax
I call those poops flawless victories.
There is no such thing. At best, you'll do one courtesy wipe and hang the paper back.
I hear ya there. It's just those rare occasions, where you wipe once, always gotta make sure, and that first wipe shows you were already luckily clean, it just makes ya wonder..
Sugar makes my poo real bad, candy especially. My gut biome just can’t handle it.
Otherwise it’s just fibre from vegetables and fruit pretty much
Stop using toilet paper as your primary. Bidets are remarkably more convenient and cheaper in the long run. It's literally night and day better.
We tried that once. Couldn't get it installed, the original plumbing lines were (and still are) too corroded together. They can't be separated where the water line to the toilet tank is, without lots of work we can't afford.
Also, I didn't ask about wiping vs bidet, I asked about a healthier/cleaner poop diet.
Portable, battery powered bidets exist.
Pretty much illegal (or at least a grey area) in my country. No insurance will cover a bathroom flood issue even if bidet was installed by a licenced pro.
Always gotta wipe, just in case, but I rarely actually need to. No idea what I'm doing right so here's some facts about my diet
I drink a gallon+ between straight water, coffee, and flavored sparkling water (no calorie, aspartame-sweetened)
My breakfast is usually cereal with 1% milk or bacon and eggs once a week.
Ramen for lunch
Pizza or pasta for dinner, with a vegetable side
Fruits and whatnot are eaten intermittently as snacks.
Hope this helps I guess its not the best diet but I'm always regular.
Ramen itself gives me the shits...
Problem solved?
Not yet. I started boiling and pressing my Ramen into toilet paper though. Reduce, reuse, re-eat...
/s 😂🤣💩
Eventually that insoluble fiber becomes soluble, right?
Eat enough that your body gets used to it?
If I had to guess I'd say its based on the amount of water I drink, and maybe coffee poops keeping me regular, less about the diet itself.
Dunno for sure, but I do know I have been so regular it was a surprise when someone told me a bidet reduces toilet paper usage, because I just didn't believe it could do so. That's because it can't in my case. Takes me about as long to poop as it does to pee. Wish I could tell you what exactly I'm doing right but something is right.
I don't know but I do know eating frosted mini wheats, maybe 9-12 per day, dry, certainly helps.
Lots of alcohol. I've met guys who haven't had a solid shit in years.
But wouldn't you need an extremely solid poop to not have to wipe? I know alcoholics and I know they're making splatter in the toilet. No way in hell you don't have to wipe after that.
There's no way you can obtain wipelessness without some technique!
Get a forceful stream so it doesn't dribble down ya, but not so forceful that it bounces back.
nah there's a special zone where it doesn't splash back nor leave any but the smallest of traces on your anus
Buy or make L.reuteri yoghurt or supplement pill. I'm treating my acid reflux with it. Its truly remarkable how good it makes your tummy and butt exit door feel.
Being ok smelling like shit.
Cyanide and a belief in reincarnation.
Because often the reason your turds are Like That is genetics and the only solution would be to become a different person.
Less fluid intake? Then your body will take moisture from the poo.
More fluid. They slip right out.
