Paper Food Barriers

'Foldish' from Yang So-Yeon Helps Paranoid Food Touchers Eat in Peace

I am going to do my best to explain why I love 'Foldish' by Yang So-Yeon without sounding like a crotchety old man. I hate it when I am eating and food that I don't want to touch ends up touching.

Mashed potatoes and mac 'n' cheese make for a deliciously messy combination. 'Foldish' by Yang So-Yeon eliminates the problem of food touching by providing paper barriers. I can now cordon off my food and eat in non-touchy peace. So-Yeon envisions 'Foldish' helping to save water due to not having to use multiple plates during a meal. Paranoid food touchers, rejoice.
