Charmin toilet paper is very thick, and doesn't break down well in water. I am a plumber and have augered many sewers, pulling out intact squares of Charmin. Something so thick and heavy gets caught in any imperfections in the sewer line, and will also settle in any dips there may be. A good brand of toilet paper will dissolve and be washed away like it was water.
