I wondered this exact thing. I believe paper towels are much more expensive than the coffee filters I buy - round ones with tucked/fluted edges for a dollar. The paper towel - even the store brand are over a dollar and not nearly as versatile or sturdy as the coffee filters I think the type that are "V" shaped are more expensive. I love having a big package of round coffee filters on hand for all sorts of things like mentioned in the list. Put one in each of your cake pans to help them stack and not rust - easier to get apart too. Put one in your cast iron skillet. Kids having a popsicle? push the stick through a coffee filter for a drip cup. Each kitty can have one for his treats....LOTS of ways to use them! Great for picking up hairballs...I will have to try the greek style yogurt Johanna! Cool!
