I'm sure this baby wipe brand is trying to be eco-friendly, but I have difficulty believing that shipping water from New Zealand to Philadelphia (basically the other side of the world) is the best use of our resources.

I bought a lot of reusable cloth napkins to use as baby wipes, but they tend to catch spitup and drool before they can be applied to the baby's bottom. So here we are with disposable wipes, despite my best efforts.
