To make it easier to store and carry towels, these Mini Travel Towels are packaged like pills. To use, just pop one out, wet it with water and next thing you know, "poooch", it transforms into a sturdy 11” x 9” textured towel.

They say its great to carry it in your [purse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-minis) and use at any time. Well, I don’t know if I would like to have a [pill shaped towel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tylenol-easy-dissolve) with me. Why would I want to jinx myself by carrying something that looks like medication. Sorry, I am not on crazy pills just yet.

I know, my jokes are lame....

Anyways, this is actually good for [camping, hiking](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clesana-x1-camping-toilet), or at any day to day activity. Just make sure you don’t swallow your towel!
