    I’ve heard it’s cellulose paper, which can be used to roll weed.

    I’ve heard that, but can’t and won’t confirm it.

      I think you’re thinking of the paper in between slices of cheese, whereas the wrapper referenced is a clear plastic wrapper that goes around each individual slice of Kraft American cheese singles. The cheese is also notoriously plastic-like, as you can see in the picture.

        No, I mean the clear outer wrapping. Clear cellulose wrapping papers do exist.

        I’ve actually tested this between different brands of wrapped cheese slices (didn’t try rolling a J, just tried burning it).

        One of my three tests actually burned like paper would, the other two melted as plastic does.

        Honestly, I forget which cheese brand had the clear cellulose wrapping, but it would have actually worked as a clear joint paper.

          What in the actual fuck, TIL!

          That said, I would never ever ever smoke the clear wrapper even if it burnt like paper. Glad your science was just observational haha

          I did use a blank page from the Bible as a rolling paper once. I figured the ink was probably not great for the lungs, and it seemed less, idk, sinful to smoke the blank page instead of Psalms.

            Yep, no joke. Next time you peel the condom off of a slice of cheese, try burning it. No idea which brands use what, but indeed some use clear cellulose wrapping…
