Did you know that your average roll of cling film contains plasticisers that can leach into oily foods and have undetermined health effects? It is best to avoid wrapping high-fat foods such as cheeses in cling film and not to use it in contact with food that is microwaved.
Although there are still some question marks over health and environmental issues it is better to use unbleached parchment paper where possible. However, there are times when a little cling film comes in handy…Green Cyprus has discovered this Non-PVC All Purpose Cling Film in E&S Hypermarket, Ayia Phyla, Limassol, priced just over €2. Definitely a safer, greener option!
