I wonder about this...
If we can derive nutritional benefit from such a wrapping, as the story
posits, than so can a host of pathogenic organisms....
how can that be prevented, or even changed?
how does the wrap work in humid environments ( like that found in wrapping
a tuna sandwich on white bread )?
does it turn to some gummy veggidreck, like fruit leathers do when they get
wet?
There has got to be a _host_ of caveats in using this stuff.
