Sanitary tissue product with a shaped line of weakness
A web of sanitary tissue of the present disclosure may comprise a shaped line of weakness, wherein the toilet tissue exhibits a Line of Weakness Performance Factor (LWP Factor) of from about 7 to about 30, and a Full Sheet Average Trapezoidal Tear Strength of between about 8 g and about 20 g according to the Full Sheet Average Trapezoidal Tear Force Test Method.
Packaging sheet, packaging and use of such a packaging sheet
A packaging sheet (1) which is intended for packaging a cheese product. The packaging sheet (1) comprises an internal membrane (5) and a printable external surface (10). The internal membrane comprises at least one internal plastic layer (7) intended to be oriented towards the cheese product and at least a first water-absorbing layer (12) made of a first water-absorbing material. The external surface (10) is intended to be oriented away from the cheese product. The or each internal plastic layer (7) has a plurality of microperforations (8, 9) arranged in a random fashion on the or each internal plastic layer (7) in such a manner that the aft permeability of the internal membrane (5) is comprised between 5 mL/min Bendtsen and 500 ml/min Bendtsen, the first water-absorbing material having a water absorption rate comprised between 1 and 30 g/m.sup.2 as measured using the COBB test C.sub.3600.
Perforator lubrication system
The lubrication device delivers a lubricant to the perforating device which provides intermittently spaced cuts to a moving web, also referred to as perforations. The lubrication device includes a retaining member, a plenum, and a comb having a plurality of comb channels. The plenum and the plurality of comb channels are in fluid communication with one another and deliver a lubricant to the perforating device. Lubrication of the perforating device in this manner may improve knife life, perforation quality and web handling.

Hard taco shell and method and apparatus for producing the hard taco shell
A taco shell is produced using a rotary cutter including a shaft, an outer blade extending radially outward from the shaft and a first inner blade extending radially outward from the shaft. The outer blade defines an interior area, enclosed by the outer blade, and an exterior area. The first inner blade is located in the interior area and includes a plurality of teeth. A dough piece is cut from a dough sheet with the outer blade, and a first arcuate line of depressions is created in the dough piece with the plurality of teeth. The dough piece is folded to form a shaped dough piece, and the shaped dough piece is baked to produce a hard taco shell.
