    thedailywhat: Toilet Testing Procedure of the Day: The Maximum Performance Project, an effort to ensure proper testing of the flushing capabilities of toilets, isn’t secretive about its procedures (unlike some crappy, uncertified toilet testers).

Using specially-mixed logs of soybean paste as stand-ins for actual poo, natch. [mefi.]
