You know, I hadnt thought about it until I saw your post. Plastics, and especially heating food in plastics, is possibly adding chemicals to our food. So wouldnt plastic bags and plastic wrap be the same? Ill bet waxed paper doesnt have those same issues.
What kind of things do you use wax paper for. I am probably not appreciating it as much as I should. I did compare the prices once, and per square inch it is cheaper than either foil or plastic wrap.
I use wax paper for sandwiches(instant place mat when opened),muffins,any baked goods that requires wrapping.
I refuse plastic when I get a loaf of Italian bread at my local bakery-——I only will take it in paper bag.
I am NOT a green person,a recycling nut,I just hate plastic.
FYI-—I have tried other brands but Cut Rite is the absolute best.
