They\u2019re made of bamboo, are therefore completely biodegradable, and they contain essential oils that \u201care nourishing to your skin.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>At least that\u2019s the pitch Epic Wipes has put together to sell these things to more than sweaty campers and smelly concertgoers. On Kickstarter, where the company has raised 150 percent of its goal with a week remaining, it promotes the wipes as a way to go \u201cstraight from the beach to the boardwalk\u201d or a good choice for those who bike to work. They can also clean a baby\u2019s butt, should the need arise.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>But that\u2019s not all. Epic Wipes can \u201cdust all your furniture in half the time\u201d or \u201ckeep the interior of your car looking brand new.\u201d Anything you can do with a regular wipe, you can do with an Epic Wipe, albeit at a modest 15,000-percent markup. (A single wipe will retail for $2.99.)<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>Still, the real selling point of these things is their ability to clean dirt and grime from the body without running water. The key is to scrub down in the proper order.<br \/>\u00a0<br \/>As the company puts it, \u201cface first, butt last.\u201d<br \/>\u00a0<br \/><strong>Culled from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nymag.com\">www.nymag.com<\/a><\/strong><\/div>\n<hr style=\"width:100%;clear:both;visibility:hidden;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Adam K.
