Teardrops n Tiny Travel Trailers

I posted on Joannes campcook site but
I was reading a magazine that had a list of helpful hints. A woman from Wisconsin suggested
After washing a cast iron skillet wipe it with a wad of wax paper while it is still warm to prevent rust.

Not sure I want melted wax on my pans. Anyone ever heard of this?

Ever had a piece of cake that had an unusually chewey bottom crust only to find out the wax paper was still sticking to the bottom of the remaining part of the uneaten piece.

Ever had nips as a kid ( The kool aid like filling in a parafine bottle).

Ever had the parafine wax lips or buck teeth.

Ok how about chap stick. It's just wax it to shall pass.

I dont think I want to cook my eggs or bake a cake in wax residue. I can see how it will prevent rust but I will stick with crisco to season my pans. Just thought it was interesting.

MY mother used to put waxed paper on bottom on cake pans so cake would not stick when baked. BUT she always peeled it off when "assembling" cake.

Guess it would be ok.... But it can also trap moisture in pores of C.I. if not completely dry...
