Bears will be attracted to the smells of the food that you've cooked in your
camp.. And to the smell of humans in your camp that they associate with things
food.
Wax? Would you eat it?
Comment....
While the above is certainly a reasonable test, there are many items considered
"smellables" at Philmont that must go up in the bear bag that are not edible
or contaminated with food odors - film being an example.
