Yesterday, I spent an inordinate amount of time attempting to open a roll of what you probably call "aluminum foil". I could open the box, but not in the neat manner they pretend turns the box into an ideal container with cutting blade.
The big problem was they had glued the end of the roll down with what I can only assume was some kind of super-super adhesive developed by the local equivalent of NASA for some nefarious purpose. It was impossible to remove or unfurl the roll without shredding the foil to confetti. Gave up; binned it; bought another brand. No problems.
(My spellchecker is screaming at 'aluminum'.)
