ABSTRACT:
A method of adapting tongs having a pair of pivotally connected arms for use with a disposable bag. The method involves the following described steps. Firstly, place a pair of opposed compressible contact members on an interior surface of the arms adjacent the pivotal connection. The contact members engage when the arms are partially closed and compress thereby permitting the arms to become fully closed. Secondly, place a bottom portion of a disposable bag between the opposed compressible contact members. Thirdly, partially close the tongs such that the contact members engage to tightly grip the bottom portion of the disposable bag. Fourthly, fold a peripheral edge of the disposable bag over tips of the arms. The disposable bag opens and closes with the manipulation of the arms.
