Noooo! Now I'm hungry again. Fortunately I only eat once all 20+ hours for max. 1 hour. Part-time-feastening.
(That's almost too much personal information, dang! Lol)
Oh, welcome @FoxandtheHounds !
Did you have a good time?

I guess if there's one thing I'm good at, it's making everyone in the count thread hungry! Lol

Indeed! ?
By the way, just saw the second time that some different horny user multiposts the common responses in just one single thread - reported one with seven(!) postings in row beforehand,. now just three.. and both had over 100 posts. Initially thought they're doing it for conversation unlock, but after the resolve told me that the first one's posting counter is in three digit amount, I was bamboozled.
What do they expect from multiposts in media threads?
I wonder if that's a sign of "you've overdone your fapping today, take a break and .."

Mmm... that was indeed very delicious. I figured I deserved it since I haven't eaten anything all day, and last night's dinner was basically a can of green beans since I wasn't very hungry.
Sorry I couldn't share it with everyone here, but I figure it probably wouldn't be good anymore if I mailed it to ya. Lol

Good moor-ning, peopluffs (the unholy amalgamation between floofs and people).
Welcome back @FoxandtheHounds and @MrsShemon ! ??
Again under the living beings. Another day, another dumbfondled brain due to too much work and too less motivation. Hopefully a local discounter soon has a bag of motivation lying in special offer row just near the onions and tomatoes. I would stack up, surely.

Ah, Zunder. They're made from some sort of cotton wool and / or plastic fibers from what I saw while having them as absorbing and tightening tool in the process of welding tubes filled with inert gas.
As such I didn't use them to start a fire, usually I have rocket oven technology which has primary and secondary combustion and as such only needs a very few dry or burnable things below to start a good fire.

I just was reminded that you added tampons in your shopping list to test if they were any good as zunder.

That's possible, I try a lot of things cross-wise. But those were definitely made from cotton wool partly, which doesn't burn well (it's used as a partly protective cover against welding sparks, not as good as leather but still keeps up to a big heat shortly). As such I didn't follow this idea further I assume.
I tried something else which worked quite well: Stainless steel wool like used for scratching dishes clean. If you add some burning gel to it, it is reusable and leads the heat quickly to the burnable material around it.
Most of the time it's just used paper towels, like for cleaning hands, snoozing nose, remove oil stains and comparable. I collect them after use and recycle them as tinder. It's the quickest method.

You need to use tampons made primarily from wood fibre. But those might be a Nordic thing, ain't much cotton up here, but we don't really have a shortage of trees.

Oh, from wood fiber? That's something new, I guess those are not everywhere to be found in our stores.
Aside cotton it's some other highly-absorbing material and for different hardness a sponge-like stuff which probably gets made from plastic. But I don't have them regularly sitting on a bench, I get them mostly for smaller tubes which need individual size "caps" on one end as such the inert gas doesn't "flow" out on the bottom side, as it is heavier than air.
I can remember that we probably talked about the wood fiber solution beforehand, tho.

This
www.bodyform.co.uk
is just one of the world leading manufacturers of female hygiene products (Libresse), tampons and pads are made primarily from pulp fibres.
Probably found in almost any store all over the world.

Depending on how you process the wood fibres, they can be made even more absorbable than cotton fibres.
Most likely we did. But this thing about using tampons as zunder was after my US tampon failure story.

Hmm, I would think that the types of materials used vary less because of the "producers", but more because of regular / country wide law requirements. Likely linked to health standards and comparable, which materials are allowed in which amount.
But as there are bamboo tooth brushes and a wide variety of wooden- / bamboo made hygienic products, it's well possible to find wooden fiber tampons in stores of GER nowadays, too.

In German stores you will most likely find a buttload of stuff made from wood fibres. Although bamboo is technically grass, it has a rather similar cell structure as both hardwood and softwood, and can be used to make basically everything "real" wood fibres can be used for (with some exceptions).
Wood fibres can actually replace all oil based products and production, but that would be very bad for US and MENA economy, so a rather influential lobby organization against switching to wood fibres on a planetary scale exist.

A big problem with bamboo is less it's versatility, as it can be heat-pressed (comparable to wood, but even works without any glue/binding additives) into shapes easily and quickly, but exactly it's properties as grass.
Because "wood" fibers actually don't tend to build up fungi spores quickly, some have natural protective ingredients, like acidic liquids, the "Harz" and comparable. They balance out the amount of water in the air quite well without suffering by it.
Grass like bamboo actually corrodes, molds quickly. This makes it quite a bad choice for all those things with higher wall thickness (storing water inside the walls, the density differences tear parts and mold builds up) or regular use in liquid / wet areas, if it can't dry wholly and quite quickly to an acceptable level.
One of the reasons I don't use bamboo made materials for kitchen environments in contact with food. It can get stabilized by adding chemicals, but that's for sure not the way to go for using food on it..
"Real" wood is quite rarely used in our products, nowadays. It's either cellulose or waste wooden products like those made from little snippets and fibers. Comparable to "producing paper", somewhat. And that often binds chemicals in those products as well, unfortunately. The durability is lower than well-cared for real wood, as well.
You surely know the "IKEA" concept of coating wood waste pressed into shape with plastic coatings (laminates). You can't sand it down after damages occur, it loves to mold on low air-exchange areas and neither would it hold up the stress a massive wooden table as example would.
Addendum: I know that you probably are more experienced with plant fibers and their growth than I, as such it's quite useless to explain this. But in practical use it unfortunately tends to prove the weaknesses of bamboo quite quickly.. Had some working table for soldering molding on the surface after there was a somewhat wet (with cleaning liquid! A household cleaner which usually kills fungal spores! ?
) towel on it for a few days. Never happened with wood.
