Boy did we get a laugh over this one! Who reads a box of plastic wrap or aluminum foil? Who knows what all we are missing by not reading the boxes. I cannot wait to try this new found knowledge out and I think my blood pressure will lower next time I use one of these boxes.
Thanks for the tip and you are not alone.
