Default Does plastic wrap go bad?

Now there's a question you don't see every day! And Google didn't
spit out an answer that I could see.

I just need to wrap a few leftovers, plastic wrap should do fine, I
have a roll in the drawer - but it hasn't been out of the drawer for
how long - five years, longer?

Assuming it still seems mechanically sound, is it really, or does it
start leaking nasty invisible chemicals or something?

I'll probably buy a new roll next time I'm in the market now that it's
come up, two bucks every five years whether I need it or not seems
reasonable, but even so, how about it?

Thanks,


J.
