Is paper shred clean?

I'm making little gift baskets with homemade cookies in it and I'm filling it with paper shred (the crinkly decorative stuff) on the bottom so it will look like grass but then I'm scared to put the cookies directly on top in case the paper shred isn't clean. How would I know if it's clean? I would rather not wrap up the cookies because it will ruin the look of the baskets. Anyone know if it's safe to put food directly on top of paper shred?

    Paper won't kill you. I would worry about it. It's probably safe and clean enough for that purpose.

    I'm sure it will be fine. But if you don't want to do that use a paper towel at the very bottom.
