To save any other Britons having to search it, "Saran Wrap" is American for "Cling Film".
And for the Australians, Glad Wrap.
Huh. It's cling wrap in Tas.
A bit like Hoover being a brand name that is sometimes used for any brand of vacuum cleaner.
Honestly we mostly call it cling film too
"Plastic wrap" is the most common term in my area.
We call it "sperm saver".
And for the Germans: Frischhaltefolie
