Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper

RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper Post by cett (66) | (07/30/2008) Profile | Contact so if cereal liners are sprayed with pesticides, why are they being used to hold cereal? so my kids are eating pesticides with their cheerios? that comment from sharon makes no sense to me. ive been using the liners for years to cover my homemade preserves and to hold my kids packed lunches. if they are good enough to hold cereal, they are good enough to be recycled for other things!

They're great for freezer bags or just about anything. Report Spam or Abuse RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper Post By (Guest Post) (01/22/2008) I been doing this too and I save them up. I usually have a need and a big need when I need them. I store them in the big Ziplock bags, they are compact after you zip it up to one corner before you close it all the way just stick a straw in one corner and suck out the air. Another method is to put a heavy book on it and then puff the air out of the edges as you zip all the way up.

I use those liners instead of waxed paper. First I tear the liner at the seams, then wash and dry thoroughly. To store freshly baked cookies, I use the liner in my plastic ware, putting a layer between cookies and folding (accordian style) to the next layer up. These liners also work well as a table cover when crafting (instead of newspaper under messy projects). Wadded up cereal liners make great packaging when mailing or wrapping gifts. By Wordyblue Feedback: RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper After I finish cereal, I take out the wax paper from in the cereal box. I wipe it out real good. I save it for storing leftovers, packing a sandwich in, etc. This saves me from having to buy wax paper. - Cynthia (10/28/2004) RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper Uses for cereal wax paper bags. I put flour and chicken pieces in them and shake to coat. Also use for left over homemade bread and rolls. (10/28/2004) By GayCarolyn Using Cereal Box Liners Take the inner liners from cereal boxes, wipe off the cereal "dust", cut them in strips and put them between cookies, meal patties or chicken pieces to freeze. That way they separate easily when you only want a few. It stays crisp in the freezer and the quality of the liner is great. By Grannie Annie (10/29/2004) RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper I use my cereal packets for all kinds of stuff and this year I cut circles out of them to put in the top of my jam (10/29/2004) By UK Anne Reusing Cereal Liners I save the plastic liners from cereal boxes to use instead of wax paper. Just carefully open the bag down the seams and wipe off with a cloth. I fold them and store them in a drawer. They are great for baking, crafts, etc. I like them better than wax paper because they lay flat and are usually a little heavier. By Melinda (01/15/2005) A Replacement for Wax Paper A great tip to save money on wax paper: a cheap alternative is the use the plastic bags that cereal comes in (in the boxes). Just separate along the seams & wash! I haven't purchased wax paper for 15 years and the plastic cereal bags are actually heavier than wax paper and work better! By Kelly Wakefield (02/28/2005) RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper Cereal liners are sprayed with pesticides. I'm not sure even washing them thoroughly would remove it! I would strongly caution against using them for any kind of food storage! (07/03/2005) By Sharon RE: Use Cereal Liner as Wax Paper Save the wax paper from inside your cereal boxes to freeze foods. I use two for each item and tape it shut. Foods keep very well. By Angela from Defuniak Springs, FL (12/30/2005) Report Spam or Abuse
