That’s duck tape, and you wouldn’t have to if you bought decent tortillas like Guerrero instead of Old El Paso.

The fact that it’s overpriced doesn’t mean that it’s good.

Yeh, but the cheaper ones are worse…

Duct. Duck is a brand name, sealing gaps in ductwork is one of the things its really good at and happens to be the same color of, to blend into.
But yes, ops tortillas are not the best.

Yes. But also mostly no.

People should really do the bare minimum double-check before showing their whole ass.

This is the most hostile tape-related comment I ever read.

Yeah I’m pretty aroused by it right now too

Definitely was called duck tape first, as in water off a duck’s back

Just like you shouldn’t use duct tape on ducts, you shouldn’t use duck tape on ducks.

Then what kind should I use instead?

Duct tape, as in the grey fiber reinforced tape that we typically think of, is not really a good solution for actually taping ducts.
When you are taping ducts, you typically want to use some type of foil thing, like this, but there are many varieties.
Of course, tape for ducts is, kinda, duct tape by definition.

The popular form of duct tape doesn’t have similar rates of expansion/contraction to ductwork making it a bad choice for ducts.
Not as bad as op’s tortilla choice, though.

Akshully, the tape was originally called “duck tape” because it was made from a fabric called “cotton duck canvas”
Bitrot@lemmy.sdf.org 7 months ago
It’s named after the fabric, cotton duck.

Here in Europe the choice is pretty limited.
