With a late-night dinner in the works I was irate enough about this unusable-looking foil that I felt compelled to bring the matter to the attention of the company that makes it. I tore off a swath of the foil and wrote a 1-page letter which I promptly took to a corner mailbox. I went to to an all-night grocery to buy what ended up being a roll of cheap-o brand-x crappy foil that is almost soft and thin enough to use as tissue.<\/p>\n

Returning to my kitchen I put down a sheet of the trusty but mysteriously soiled Heavy Duty Reynolds Wrap and then put several layers of the untrusted brand-x foil on top so as to maximize the thickness of separation between the chicken and the filthy, filthy cookie sheet (it seriously is filthy).<\/p>\n
I was annoyed about the defective roll of foil but I honestly bring these matters to the attention of the appropriate parties in the spirit of helping companies and individuals know that there are problems with their product. I am not trying to be an ass nor do I expect anything in return.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, in return for my bringing this matter to their attention the fine people at the Consumer Response Division of Reynolds Wrap sent me this manufacturors coupon for a free roll of Reynolds Wrap<\/b><\/a>, either 75 or 200 square feet. I didn’t understand at first why they would offer an option of 75 or 200 square feet. Who wouldn’t take 200 over 75 if it’s free? I soon found that many stores don’t seem to carry the 200 ft. size and I looked at quite a few stores before finding it.<\/p>\n At any rate, when I say there’s a lot of love for Reynolds Wrap I am referring to the Reynolds Wrap comment board<\/b> which is suddenly clocking lots of enthusiastic remarks from site visitors who randomly find the page while looking for Reynolds Wrap coupons.<\/p>\n
