And yet, when I buy a baked good from the farmers market or my local coffee shop, it is wrapped so well that I can never find the end! It takes all I have to unwrap that deliciousness. Plastic-free July, anyone??
Thanks Debi! Those are both great or even cheesecloth and things like that depending on the item. I almost can’t believe this stuff is still in play—it is so terrible! :)
Yeah…..it’s going to be a pass for me, Bill. Unless it’s for a massive class action lawsuit suit about the emotional distress of their product. In which case, please give Saul Goodman my number
It's a total con -- and a conspiracy. They make it so it doesn't work and then we have to use more of it! Do they think we won't try something else?? I'm boycotting. And sticking, yes sticking, with Cling Wrap. Thank you for this helpful post, my friend!
🤣 You're absolutely right! It sticks to itself better than anything else in the room. I didn't even get to the rim of the bowl. It started wadding up with itself straight from the razor's edge. Holy merde! That press and seal stuff is so much easier to use. It actually does what it says it's suppose to.
It’s like it RECOILS from the surfaces it’s supposed to cling to!! We have nineteen different medications for heartburn, but THIS—no one can figure it out. Sorry. Nope. :) Thanks Sue!
This spoke to my soul. But unlike you, I don’t even have the patience (optimism?) to try. We don’t Saran Wrap in this house. We put uncut quarters of watermelon in the fridge bare and exposed, as nature intended. The surface gets extra sweet and leathery (win, win!) but then the rest of it tastes sad and subpar in comparison (what Saran Wrap thrives on). Great piece!
Ooh Shirawrites: Don’t let BIG POLYMER know what you’re up to!! :) You’re putting them out of business—happily so! I also know plenty of people who have embraced beeswax sheets and such. Or just let it all go naked. Make that fridge a party! :) YES!
HAA! I look forward to it! Yeah, many are chiming in about the wonders of Press N Seal. So why do we still have the roll? What kind of psychological terror is at work here and what kind of Dr. Evil super villain consortium is behind it and can it be traced directly to Mitch McConnell and his mysterious “absence” from work/living and breathing? THESE are the questions that really need answering!

You’re totally right! Maybe they are making their own from pressed dandelions and hope :) Let’s make plastic’s days very numbered :)
Somebody had to say it!
I feel like you must have cameras in my kitchen.
What are you doing, Dave? :)
🤣
Made me laugh! So true! I’ve switched to aluminum foil and wax covered cloth wraps.
These are cool, too. Fast, efficient, re-useable

Oh my gosh I laughed so hard at this. Perfect analysis. Thank you!
Thanks Martha! You’re fab! I wish you the kind of cling-free day you desire!
Yes!! I despise Saran Wrap so much, except for that peel and stick stuff that works so much better!!
Totally! Why do you still exist Saran Wrap? Do you owe someone money or what?
So, that’s a no on the Saran-Wrap testimonial commercial?
Yeah…..it’s going to be a pass for me, Bill. Unless it’s for a massive class action lawsuit suit about the emotional distress of their product. In which case, please give Saul Goodman my number
If the deranged killer comes by I have an extra box of Saran with just his name on it. Not taking any chances, baby.
😂🤣😂🤣 Thank you, Sheila!! I knew I couldn't be the only one!
Thanks Mary Beth! You are in good company! I now sleep with a box of Saran under my pillow. You’re right: take no chances, take no prisoners! :)

THE REVOLUTION WILL BE CLINGY! Godspeed, Diane. We will tell the world your story :)
Fascinating conversation! I think I’m better off without it. It’s either clings too much or not enough.
I’m with you. I have just started wrapping stuff in old concert tee-shirts. Better. :)
😉

I do own beeswax sheets, but we prefer complete nudity in this house 😂
YES! LET THOSE SLICED ONIONS GO COMMANDO! I dig it!
So true! Edward Scissorhands box 😂😂
It’s the devil. Pure. Evil. Thanks Liz!
For years, I thought something was wrong with me. I was like why do people love this?! 😂
SAME! people swear by it and I’ve always been like, “NOT TODAY SATAN WRAP!!”
😂😂😂😂
'the oily smile of an Amway rep'🤣
I love that you took this regular, tricky product and can find so many hilarious lines to write about it. Thank you Sheila.
Thanks Donna! We can put a pig heart valve into a human but we can’t make THIS any better? C’mon now!! :)
Only one comment, you left out cutting your finger on the box while it laughs at you.🤣 Fabulous as always She.
Oh man…you’re right! That damn box LIVES to put the hurt on! :)
This hit especially hard as I am currently in the middle of my very own get off my fucking lawn piece for the week.
Also, uh, Press N Seal….hello McFly!!!
We still have Saran Wrap cause too many old people (Mitch’s brethren) are running around this joint
Great. When they decide to call it on Mitch, bundle him in some Saran and toss him overboard.

Hilarious and spot on!
Thanks Kris! Appreciate it and glad I gave you a laugh!
