OK....went upstairs and got my package of "Warm Tater" by the company that makes warm and natural. The Package says "100% natural cotton...nver made with glues or chemically treated..." I think that says it all !!! to my understanding there are glues and 'other stuff' in the regular Warm and Natural products....when you are dealing with food and heat, I personally would only use the Warm Tater batting created for the reason.....
