Desperate for Kitchen Twine: Can Floss Save My Roast?

Okay, hear me out—this might sound a bit dramatic, but I’ve been to every store in my city and kitchen twine is nowhere to be found. I’m prepping for a special dinner and need to tie up a roast, but apparently, twine is the new toilet paper! I even wandered into the arts and crafts aisle, eyeing up string and yarn, but then I started worrying about weird coatings or chemicals leeching into my food. Toothpicks crossed my mind, but I really want that perfectly uniform shape you get with string. I’m starting to feel like a contestant on a cooking show with a weird challenge: “Tie your roast with whatever you can find!” So here’s my question: Has anyone actually used unscented dental floss for this? Is it safe? Will my roast taste minty fresh?
