It's amazing to me - the thing most valued in a time of crisis is bleached dead trees to wipe your ass with. A complete luxury item that should really not even exist. If people are scared of social break down, shouldn't food be the priority? After you get food into you and shit it out, you can wipe your ass with any number of things, starting with water.

Each disaster has it's own list of item to stockpile.
Hurricanes: Food and water.
Volcano eruption: Water.
Pandemics: Toilet paper.
Just look at any zombie movie, if they had toilet paper, they could clean off the blood off their faces. Or Demolition Man, that had to result to 3 clams for lack of toilet paper. Hence, why it's important.
