✨ Product Description: Natural Fibre, Kitchen-Safe Performance

Purpose-built for food prep, the Food Grade Cotton String Ball is spun from tightly twisted long-staple cotton for strength and minimal fray. It feeds smoothly from the ball without snarls, forms secure knots that cinch and stay put, and cuts cleanly with scissors—no elastic snap-back, no synthetic smell.

• 100% food-grade cotton (unwaxed, unbleached) suitable for direct food contact.
  
• Heat tolerant for oven roasting and stovetop simmering; safe under typical roasting temperatures.
  
• Low-lint twist reduces fibres on glazes and sauces; ideal for camera-ready plating.
  
• Tangle-smart spool dispenses evenly for quick, one-hand pulls during service.
  
• Neutral taste & odour—won’t affect delicate stocks, cures, or smoking blends.
  

Note: Exact length/ply may vary by batch; all versions are specified for culinary use and food contact.

The tight twist cinches firmly and resists slipping—ideal for spatchcocking, roulades, porchetta, bacon weaves, and butcher’s ties.
