Mardi Gras Napkins, 1-Ply, 500 Napkins I line the inside of my refrigerators crisper and meat drawers with Mardi Gras napkins to absorb spills and excess moisture. Place a Mardi Gras napkin under your bottle of oil in the cupboard to protect the surface. I like to put Mardi Gras napkins in my childrens lunch boxes to use for their hands and as a placemat. It makes cleanp-up easy! I use a clothespin to attach the two ends of a Mardi Gras napkin around my toddlers neck during mealtimes. It makes a great disposable bib! Mardi Gras napkins are wonderful for absorbing grease from catfish, chicken and other fried foods. Just place them on the napkins immediately after frying, and let them drain.
