Strongest: Bounty Double Quilted

About $1.69 a roll (different rolls of Bounty are available at warehouse clubs for about $1 a roll), 120 sheets a roll.

Pros:

Bounty towels won the grape test; they could hold 136 grapes, or 27.8 ounces. Half the tested brands ripped under the weight of just 80 grapes.

They soaked up two-ounce spills of both oil and juice using half as many sheets as some other brands.

Con:

Rough texture; not a good stand-in for facial tissues.
