Definition of kitchen paper

kitchen papernoun

/ˈkɪtʃɪn peɪpə(r)//ˈkɪtʃɪn peɪpər/

The origins of the term "kitchen paper" can be traced back to the early 20th century when the product was first introduced in the market. At that time, tissue paper was still a luxurious item, mainly used for personal hygiene purposes. To meet the demands of the burgeoning food and hospitality industry, manufacturers began to produce a coarser and thicker variety of tissue paper, which could be used for cleaning and wiping down surfaces, particularly in the kitchen. Initially, this new product was called "absorbent wadding paper" and was used primarily in the meatpacking industry to wrap and protect meat cuts during transportation. It soon caught on in the commercial kitchens, where it was used to clean utensils, work surfaces, and floors. The name "kitchen paper" was coined in the 1950s to distinguish it from other types of tissue paper. It became widely popular during this time due to the rise of packaged foods and convenience culture. The paper quickly became an essential item in households as well, as people began to appreciate its disposable nature and convenience. Over time, the term "kitchen paper" has been replaced by other regional names, such as "paper towels" in the United States, "kitchen roll" in the United Kingdom, and " serviettes" in France. However, the product's origins in the kitchen remain unchanged, and it remains an indispensable item in millions of households and commercial kitchens worldwide.
