I didn't quite get it the first time I read this because I don't order
inside-out rolls, but
yes, a sheet of saran wrap would be used.
I have never seen such a thing as described above and it is absolutely not
acceptable.
Action certainly shgould be taken be it a strong word with the manager or

Japanese?
