The answer is yes. Parchment paper is safe to use for baking and cooking. The silicone contained in parchment paper makes the paper oil resistance, moist, and heat resistant. Because when chlorine bleached parchment paper is heated, there is concern that it may leak a chemical called dioxin1. Dioxins in high doses , have been linked to reproductive and developmental problems, damage the immune system, interfere with hormones and also cancer. Unlike parchment paper, however, it is not heat-resistant and therefore should not be used in the oven, as the wax could melt, or even ignite.
Also, research by the International Journal of Electrochemical Science found that small amounts of aluminum may leach into food during the cooking process.

Yes , you can eat them. They have no real taste, absolutely no nutritional value to humans, and cannot replace any type of food. It will act as fiber as the stomach acids break down the paper, due to the cellulose. Ideally, it is best to keep wax paper in a room temperature cupboard. You can also put wax paper in the fridge without the chemical composition being altered. Wax paper can also be frozen, although it might be better to use freezer paper, as freezer paper is coated with plastic on one side.
