Can someone please walk me through wrapping a sandwich with wax paper and NO TAPE?

When I get a sandwich from the deli, it's wrapped tightly, no tape.

I can't seem to recreate it and the demos I've found online always require tape. The deli doesn't use tape.

Does anyone know the secret?

Is there some kind of food grade adhesive on one side of the wax paper that the deli uses?

It is terrible quality, but there is a video for this on YouTube.

Strive for respect instead of attention. It lasts longer.

This is a good illustration...I've gotten deli sandwiches folded like this. Heavy paper is key.

Omg… Sidsmom! That is the most awesome response I have ever gotten on these boards!

Thank you!

Did you draw it out yourself? I can't wait to try it. I'm packing the sandwiches for a girlfriends' picnic on Wednesday. I have to make sandwiches for 8 of us and didn't want to use baggies. I like wax paper or parchment paper so much better.

thanks, thanks, THANKS {#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

Thanks, Mrs. G ! I had seen this video and I tried one this way. It worked, but it was kind of awkward to do.
