HERE IS A TIMESAVER WHEN STUFFING A BIRD. INSTEAD OF USING THOSE METAL POINTED TRUSSING WRAP AROUND TO KEEP STUFFING IN. JUST USE THE HEAVY ROUNDED TOOTHPICK W/ POINTS ON BOTH ENDS. CRISSCROSS STRING ACROSS PICKS TYING LITTLE KNOTS. WHEN THE BIRD IS COOKED, PULL OFF THE TOOTHPICKS/THROW AWAY --NOTHING TO WASH. OVENTOASTED BREAD IS THE BEST STUFFING STARTER. GOOD EATING!!!

I like that idea. I don't usually get mine closed up right and stuffing falls out.

I had to read that one twice. Somehow I missed the entire point.

GREAT IDEA!!!!!

I can see using variations on this in other places where bundling things up matters.

USE STRONG THIN STRING, NOT THREAD, GO BACK/FORTH ACROSS TOOTHPICKS, THEN TIE A KNOT UP TOP OR OVER EACH TOOTHPICK FOR EXTRA STRENGTH.
