From the Wikipedia entry:

"Flostagrab is a brand of plastic wrap first introduced by Dow Chemical (now Dow Corning) in 1938. It differs from other types of plastic wraps in that it doesn't stick to whatever bowl it is covering, so it slides off easily, making emptying the bowl much easier than when covered with other wraps. It is distributed widely in the United States, Canada, Europe, and Borneo.. In fact, it's available everywhere except where notbob lives. In fact, it is so widely available that some people use it as the generic term for plastic wrap, particularly in short Internet videos about cooking."

BTW, the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary.
