        They don't put a sheen of lint on your clothes. That's why I appreciate them.

        Black napkins attract dog hair in a house full of golden retrievers.

        At the very least they won’t leave visible lint on my trousers. A small benefit in an uncaring world.

        Seriously? We switched to black napkins 12 years ago at a pizzeria because they stain less and they match the black, white, and red dish ware.
