Wax paper


A type of paper with a waxed surface on one side that is used for wrapping foods for storage. It can also be used to line cake pans to keep the cake batter from sticking to the pan. The paper typically is sold in rolls but there are pre-cut squares available from food service equipment providers.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are  advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
