1. The box will disintegrate on opening.

2. You can never find the start of the roll.

3. The serrated box edge is incapable of cutting the film.

4. If it does cut, it will never be in a straight line.

5. The film will cling to itself but not what you want to wrap.

The serrated box edge is very sharp and can slice easily through flesh. The only thing it can’t cut is cling film

You will be sorry when the Cling Film Phantom comes calling. Luckily, you will have plenty of time to run away now that you know the rules.

In USA it's called Saran wrap. Some people call it Satan wrap as it is bad for the environment as it takes hundreds of years for it to decompose.

Did you know that on either end of your cling film or tin foil package are cardboard tabs that you push through to secure the roll in place? It makes life a little easier.

Like so many things in life, you wonder if the person who invented it, and was undoubtedly overjoyed with their invention at first, slowly realised that it was actually the most dreadful thing.

Beeswax food wraps are a lot better. Washable, can be 'refreshed' and compostable when they reach the end of their life.

Manchester is in Greater Manchester, formerly in Lancashire. I was born in Liverpool, Merseyside (also formerly in Lancashire) not New York or Alabama. It’s all very confusing!

If I use I roll it out with a bit of difficulty, then place whatever I wrapping on it before cutting with scissors which leaves a little dangly bit to start from the next time.

The current roll I have seems to be worse than any I've had previously. Not sure why but it's darn annoying 👿

If it can make your dangly bit a little bigger, then it would be a benefit for all mankind.

I’ve used these and don’t understand what the it’s tiny sheets are supposed to wrap. Prefer a silicone bag with a plastic slide lock for my pitta filled lunch now, rather than the sandwiches I used to have in the wax wrap.
