I would be the UK Daily Telegraph, mainly for the crossword, then it would be used for the fish and chips.

Alan Whicker went to a restaurant in San Francisco many years ago. There was no menu. They said they would produce what ever you asked for. He asked for fish and chips in newspaper....and got it!

I would like to be The Sun - just for one day.

Then I would line the bottom of my cat litter tray.
