Proving that people will research anything and everything, the SCOTT Clog Clinic says New York City is the cloggiest city in the country. Um, yay for us or ewwww for us? Now, of course Scott's goal is to talk about their toilet tissue (we're Charmin consumers, for the record), because their tissue is "fast-dissolving," but it seems many clogging problems are due to bad plumbing and "heavy flushing periods." Scott provides tips to a less-clogged toilet at their Clog Clinic (there are no mentions of high-fiber diets, though). Here are the top clogging cities:
Seattle/Tacoma is the least cloggy - maybe Seattle has a super powerful sewer system?
1. New York
2. Miami/Fort Lauderdale
3. Los Angeles
4. Philadelphia
5. Houston
6. Atlanta
7. Chicago
8. Portland, OR
9. Indianapolis
10. San Francisco Bay Area
More fun facts: The cloggist days of the year are Thanksgiving, the Super Bowl, and then Christmas. And today is National Plumber's Day. Who knew?

Not surprising. The plumbing here blows. Low water pressure and anemic toilets. My current apartment, however, came equipped with a FlushMate. I've had no clogs with this thing. It's amazing and well worth whatever it must have cost.
Ooh, thanks for the link.
I think the subtext of this information is that NYC is full of poo, but that's just our scatalogically inclined mind at work.
I agree about the low water pressure for flushing for nyc. And as a resident of Seattle, I suspect our lack of problems w/ clogging is due to healthier eating: People around here are very much into vegetarianism and eating diets w/ fiber and low meat content.
i'd like to point out that the flushmate does not necessarily solve all your problems.
no, the subtext is that people qall over are disgusting sloppy consumers and eat WAY, WAY TOO MUCH on the holidays only to sh** the stuff out!
