Did lead pipes
cause the fall of the Roman Empire?
How many toilets were in the
average Egyptian pyramid?
How did a knight wearing fifty
pounds of armor go to the bathroom?
Was poor hygiene the last straw
before the French Revolution?
Did Thomas Crapper really invent
the modern toilet?
How do astronauts go
in space?
History finally comes out of the water-closet in
this exploration of how people's need to relieve themselves shaped human
development from ancient times to the present. Throughout time, the most
successful civilizations were the ones who realized that everyone poops, and they
had better figure out how to get rid of it From the world's first flushing toilet
invented by ancient Minoan plumbers to castle moats in the middle ages that
used more than just water to repel enemies, Sarah Albee traces human
civilization using one revolting yet fascinating theme.
A blend of historical photos and humorous illustrations
bring the answers to these questions and more to life, plus extra-gross sidebar information adds to the potty humor. This is bathroom reading kids, teachers,
librarians, and parents won't be able to put down

Received a perfect bunch!
Some things are truly hit or miss with Amazon Fresh grocery deliveries!
I Some things are truly hit or miss with Amazon Fresh grocery deliveries!
I hadn’t ordered bananas for about a month due to what I’d received in the past.
Personal preference? I want those lovely pale green ends! Please!!! I don’t like the flavor or even the change in scent that happens when bananas turn darker yellow, freckle - or worse? Turn brown. Yuck.
Each previous delivery, I hadn’t been able to eat more than 3 out of each bunch because of the already yellowed fruit received. I even tried the currently trendy recommendation of wrapping the individual stem ends in plastic wrap to help slow the ripening process.
Was very pleased to receive a bunch of 6 small sized bananas, all delicately green and completely beautiful!
Beautiful job by the thoughtful delivery person as well, who didn’t just leave the bags in the rain on the (only 2!) steps, but made sure they were under the protection of the porch and not blocking my door.
Some items I never order anymore (beloved snap peas and garnet potatoes are two examples) after receiving spoiled items - more than once.
Apparently notifying Amazon of our understandable disappointment, not to mention the waste! can sometimes improve the quality of items delivered.

Nice size bananas. Not bruised or spoiled. Good bananas!
Really beautifully picked for ripeness and last a few days once you get them home.

Great-Tasting Protein Shake With Fresh Product Dates and Excellent Nutrition
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I picked up this Premier Protein chocolate shake 12-pack mainly as a convenient daily protein option, and overall the quality has been excellent.
The chocolate flavor tastes very good without being overly sweet, and the texture is smooth compared to many protein drinks that can feel chalky or heavy. The 30 grams of protein also make it very practical for quick meals, post-workout use, or busy days when preparing food is not convenient.
One thing I appreciated is that the product arrived with fresh expiration dates, which is important when buying protein drinks in bulk. The packaging was also in good condition, and the bottles were easy to store and carry.
The nutritional balance is another strong point, especially with the added vitamins and minerals included without extra added sugar. Compared to many other ready-to-drink protein shakes, this one feels lighter while still being filling and satisfying.
In terms of value for the money, it feels like a very good purchase considering the quality, nutrition content, convenience, and freshness.
Overall, a high-quality protein shake with excellent taste, fresh product dates, strong nutritional value, and very good everyday convenience. It can also be mixed with other flavors.

What's small and powerful and full of protein?
Flavor Name: Chocolate, Size: 11 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
This is better than expected - filling - chocolate-milkish taste - lots of protein - only o few calories - good for
times you want to eat less but still have energy - It is a good product to have on hand - it is filling - this
is not exciting but rather useful in a busy life -when you don't want to cook, before a medical procedure
or any situation where less is more. The taste is good enough - best ice cold - I would recommend this
product.
