Yeah, along with plastic sealable bags. We should go back to wax(ed) paper and brown bags, and don’t leave anything around long enough to dry out. Leftovers are evil.  One of the odd things about my memory is that I recall certain specific incidents from decades ago while not being able to picture a house that we lived in for years. One of my memories is about the first time I saw Saran Wrap. An elementary school classmate had a lunch sandwich wrapped in it, and we were fascinated by how it could be crumpled into a tiny ball, but when released would grow back in size like something from a 1950s sci-fi movie. It seems that that the varieties labeled as “cling” are harder to handle. ► 6.0/94.0 “I can’t give you brains, but I can give you a diploma.” — The Wizard of Oz | |||

One of my very first posts on SIGforum, almost fifteen years ago, was a rant about Saran Wrap. הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

No kidding. Bought a roll of that crap years ago. Put it on a pyrex casserole dish, went to reheat and could not get the "glue" off after removing the wrap with food in the dish. Transfer the la-zag-na onto a cookie sheet and used acetone to remove the glue. Dawn and scrubbie, wouldn't get it off and just smeared. In the trash it went.

If they had named it "PRESS N SMEAR", nobody would have bought it. Pretty smart, they were, weren't they?  Q | |||

The wife used Press-n-seal to cover an incision on me for showering after surgery. It worked great! | |||

Don’t ever try using those reusable plastic zip loc bags. Ugh. Disgusting. | |||

Ah, reminds me of grandma's house. Ziploc bags turned inside out hanging from the kitchen cabinets to dry. Aluminum foil also got washed & recycled. | |||

Uh, my wife washes zip lock bags. Forgivable, she's almost a Great Grandma (end of August?) and Korean style thrifty.  Any dog can be a Guide Dog if you don't care where you're going. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||

I have a metric shit-ton of used ziplocks in my shop. Great for separating/storing/labeling little parts during disassembly/repair/reassembly. And while I'm creating thread drift, I also have a large selection of Mrs. PHPaul's used baking pans and cookie sheets. Once she deems them no longer suitable for kitchen service, they're great for the same functions on larger parts. Carbs in this pan, valve train in that one... Be careful when following the masses.

For food I use wax paper. For board game pieces I use zip locks. For baking, aluminum foil. Plastic wrap, never.

I freeze slices of pizza-place and homemade pizza by wrapping in plastic wrap, works great. | |||
