Step 1: design your damn toilets so they do not clog.
Step 2: there is no step 2.
Seriously, half a century of toilet use here in Aus and I’ve never caused - or discovered even - a blocked toilet at home.
Clearly the fact that I can buy a toilet plunger from the local hardware store indicates that this can happen here. But it seems that every American household has a toilet plunger and poop knife on standby and many articles are devoted to what clogs, and how to unclog, American toilets.
There are better designs for both toilets and plumbing out there guys, maybe you should look into using them.
You don’t, American toilets are weird and siphon the bowl out before filling it with water. The better design dumps water into the bowl from the cistern and flushes everything through.
Australian here.

It’s not the toilets that clog, it’s the pipes beyond. Thick toilet paper and tampons and tree roots breaking into pipes…etc are the culprits.
Maybe it’s American diets and not the plumbing.
Dude we put a pack of (not) flushable wipes and a dozen tampons down the drain, and all our shops have free public toilets
Good luck…
You’ve got it all wrong. We’ve got the exact same toilets! They just struggle with the compressed remains of my three brunch big macs…

How many courics?
I completely agree that the us should design their plumbing better, but we do typically throw more flushable golfballs down the toilet than you.
in b4 someone asks about the poop knife
