I remember in 1st through 3rd grade having my PB & J or Bologna & Cheese perfectly sealed in waxed paper.
Does anybody still have this skill?
I can't seal a sandwich in waxed paper for the life of me. It winds up a floppy unsealed mess!
Does anybody actually still use this stuff?
Since I can't properly wrap a sandwich, I use it for microwave purposes.

I don't think the good stuff was invented yet.
This really was the good stuff.
If I had the ability to actually use it, I would use it every day. The waxewd paper keeps the sandwich more "eatable than sealing it in a zip-lock.
There really is a skill to sealing in waxed paper!!

I thought of something similiar today actually. I got a sandwhich from a Deli and unlike me, did not finish it. I tried to re-wrap it and it was just a mess.

We always had all 3 wraps in the house when I was growing up:
aluminum foil
saran wrap (i know it a brand name--plastic wrap or whatever)
and wax paper.
I don't think the wax paper ever got used very much, but we always had it.

Maybe classes in origami (sp?) would help.

I used to walk to my Aunt's house for lunch break when I was a kid in the 70's, and the Deli would make me a ham & cheese on a seeded roll with mayo or mustard. Watching him wrap my yummy sandwich in waxed paper was a treat in itself. He always seemed to pull the perfect amount of waxed paper from the waxed paper roll with a perfect tear everytime! He was very talented with his nimble fingers. He would give it the quick three fold tape job and then he would pass the beautiful folded waxed bundle of culinary joy to the mini me. I would get to my Aunt's house and she would have tea waiting for me and I would unwrap this waxed paper to eat my lunch. Sometimes I would open the waxed paper carefully and then fold it nicely. Other times I would tear it open like an animal. It was always like Christmas opening waxed paper in Bayonne!

Ever read a recipe and it calls for parchment paper? I wanna strangle the guy who calls for it. Yea, let me just go get a copy of the Magna Carta or some shit, you fucking fuck.
You got that because I have little to add on the wax paper front. It was out of style by the time I can remember shit as a kid.

In eighth grade I used wax paper to copy my mom's signature on to a note from school.
Laid a piece of wax paper over an old check, traced it, put the wax paper over the note, traced over the wax paper to create an indent of mummie's sig, once over with the old # 2. It worked, never tried it again.

About 25 years ago, my dad and I were going through one of my school folders. It contained 2 bad papers that I was supposed to show him (on which I forged his signature). He said he didn't remember seeing them, but he must have.... "that is my signature", said Dad.
I often wonder if this was the moment I caused him to think about the onset of alzheimer's.
