Hi all! I have a question about placing hot food on a paper towel to suck up the grease. Firstly, a quick heads up: my knowledge of physics is poor. I still retain an interest in science especially as it relates to daily living. In the case of hot food being placed on a paper towel, I'm a little spooked (unnecessarily, my husband thinks) by the thought of electron transfer between paper (has chlorine that bleaches it and formaldehyde, a known carcinogen) and food. I'm aware of the classic example of the bat and ball in quantum physics where through contact they exchange electrons - well, that's my understanding of it. Would any of you be able to advise me on whether I have it all wrong? I was wondering too if the heat plays a role although I have learned that fresh food is actually quite susceptible to picking up chemical residue. Happy to learn.
