lol. I use cling wrap daily at work and I found a pretty handy trick...push the box of cling wrap to the back of the counter and pull some out, attaching the end of it to the edge of the counter. If you need to, put the object to be cling wrapped between the box and the edge and then pull. Cling wrap is a fucking whore.

It's the shitty cling wrap you get from the store. I work in a really nice kitchen, and have worked in many others before, the industrial cling wrap does not fuck up. Restaurants constantly buy cling wrap in bulk so Sysco won't rip you off. If you go to grocery store to get cling wrap, you get the shit that won't work, thus you buy more. It's a goddammn fucking marketing scam, these cling wrap fuckers.
My advice. Either get some industrial cling wrap from someon you know in the restaraunt biz, or get those ones that look like shower caps, you just cover the bowl or wahtever and you can wash them.
Take it easy floop.

Unbelievable..... this is something that has been pissing me off recently. Making tuna sandwiches for work has become a stressful, long drawnout affair. Its got to a point where I make my sandwiches before the wife goes to work so that she can do the cling film part for me (which to be honest is a little embarrasing).
Fuck cling film, sandwich bags are the way forward!

Take a tip - give up on cling wrap and use easy to seal bags from Sainsbury's....

okay, then try using tin foil for that stay-fresh angle...

| Never microwave cling wrap over your food. It drips carcenogenic dioxins on your food. Use paper towels. |

Or an egg (still in the shell), I have first hand experience about the force with which an egg will explode in the microwave.

| Oh man, blow one up for me. And throw Limp Bizkit on there while you're at it. Maybe Papa Roach, just for that awful Gouge Away. This list could go on a long time, I hope you have a large microwave... |

I gave up on cling-wrap and sandwich bags a long time ago.
Rubbermaid is where it's at, and your food doesn't get crushed. And it's environmental to boot. |

| Don't microwave your Rubbermaid either unless it says its microwavable, same story with the carcenogenic dioxins, and don't freeze plastic (eg. waterbottles) same deal. |

I can so relate to this problem, but for the past couple of years I have been in cling wrap heaven. I have a plastic thingy that clips across the full width of the cling wrap box. You pull the wrap out as you normally would so it sits over the plastic thingy and then simply run a small cutter is attached to the plastic thingy across the cling wrap for a nice clean cut. Easy!!! Works like a charm!!!

Oh shit, now I've got the Fugs' Saran Wrap going in my head. Just what I need. The tale of using cling wrap as a condom in a pinch... that's a vision I really need right now while trying to crunch some SQL statements...
