Tissues vs cloth in the kitchen

Yes, using tissues instead of cloth can be a more practical choice when dealing with various things in the kitchen. Here's why:

Absorbency: Think of your grandma making food for you which is tasty but a little oily like French fries, pakoda, or some fried snack & removing the oil on a tissue. The tissues will soak up excess oil from food as it has a porous texture that allows them to quickly absorb oil without leaving residue behind.

Disposable: Spilled food or liquid don’t worry, take a tissue as it is disposable, which means you can use them once and then throw it because if you use a cloth it can be challenging to clean and may leave behind a greasy residue. 

Convenience: Tissues are easy to use. They come in convenient packaging & you can place them in elegant tissue boxes which match the interior of your kitchen.

Hygiene: Tissues offer a more hygienic option in terms of preventing cross-contamination. Since they are disposable, there is a reduced risk of transferring oil or foodborne bacteria from one food item to another. 

Overall, using tissues instead of cloth when making oily food or for food spills in the kitchen provides convenience, absorbency, and hygiene benefits, making it a practical choice for oil absorption and clean-up.
