Cheap Plastic Buddha
So once again, I find myself trying to eat more healthy foods and, one hopes, lose weight.
The problem is portions.
They don't sell individual portions of anything healthy.
Oh, sure... apples, maybe. But take asparagus for example: they sell you a bunch, or none at all. And I like asparagus, but not enough to eat it every day. So the rest goes into the fridge, in plastic wrap, to (one hopes) last until the next time I can choke down asparagus.
Which leads me to my fervent wish about plastic wrap:
I want a plastic wrap that doesn't:
 fail to be cut along a neat line - it always stops being cut by the cutter and then I have to pull the hell out of it to get it to come off.
cling to itself like an emo teen to her makeup - until you actually wrap something in it, at which point it completely and utterly fails to stick to itself
cling to every surface imaginable except the container you wish to seal.
I mean, seriously, folks. It's 2010. If I can't have a flying car, can I at least have plastic wrap that freaking WORKS? |
