This was sent to me and I had to share it with all my bloggie friends. Don't you all even try and act like you already knew this either.
I had to go into the kitchen and check this out for myself. Whoever looks at the end of your aluminum foil box? You know when you try to pull some foil out and the roll comes out of the box. Then you have to put the roll back in the box and start over. The darn roll always comes out at the wrong time.Well, I would like to share this with you. Yesterday I went to throw out an empty Reynolds foil box and for some reason I turned it and looked at the end of the box. And written on the end it said, Press here to lock end. Right there on the end of the box is a tab to lock the roll in place. How long has this little locking tab been there? I then looked at a generic brand of aluminum foil and it had one, too. I then looked at a box of Saran wrap/Glad Wrap and they had one too! I can't count the number of times the Saran wrap roll has jumped out when I was trying to cover something up.I'm sharing this with my friends. I hope I'm not the only person that didn't know about this.
Here's a little more info I found.
Out of curiosity I contacted Reynolds to see just how long the locking tabs have been on foil boxes .... Here's the response:Thank you for your inquiry regarding Reynolds Wrap Aluminum Foil.In our continuing efforts to meet the needs of our consumers, our cartons have end locks to hold the rolls in place.
