 Aluminium foil - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aluminium foil containers and trays are used to bake pies and to pack takeaway meals, ready snacks and long life pet foods.
In the late 19th century and early 20th century, tin foil was in common use; aluminium foil largely supplanted it, but some people long continued to call aluminium foil by the name of its tin counterpart (perhaps due to its being shorter to say).
It is used for wrapping food in order to preserve it, for example when storing leftover food in a refrigerator (where it serves the additional purpose of preventing odour exchange), when taking sandwiches on a journey, or when selling some kinds of take-away or fast food.

 Reynolds Wrap Foil FAQ - reynoldskitchens.com
Heavy duty aluminum foil is better for wrapping meats and poultry for the freezer, lining roasting pans for easy cleanup, lining the inside of a charcoal barbecue grill to keep it clean, tenting roasted turkey to prevent oven spatters and over-browning, and making an oven packet for cooking chicken, fish and vegetables.
The food can be safely eaten; however, the aluminum salt particles can be removed from the food to improve the appearance of the food.
Our extra heavy duty foil is great for making campsite cooking utensils, lining the inside of a charcoal barbecue grill to keep it clean, and wrapping large meats and poultry for long-term freezing.

 Aluminum Foil - FUNdamentals of Camping
Among hunters and fishermen, foil is most often used to prepare sealed packets of food to cook on campfire coals or a campsite grill.
Meat, fruit and vegetables can be cooked in foil using this method and a complete dinner can be put together and cook in one piece of foil.
Lay the foil flat, place the food on top, and fold the foil in half so the food is between the folded pieces, near the fold.

 Baked Potatoes & Aluminum Foil - Baked Potato Recipes
WHEN WRAPPING POTATOES WITH FOIL (for baked potatoes), SHOULD THE SHINY OR THE DULL SIDE BE FACING OUT?
A foil wrapped potato reflects some of the radiant heat - so the potato will not be overcooked on the outside and undercooked on the inside.
As long as the potatoes are fairly close to the radiant heat source (a few inches) the potato is being cooked by a combination of radiant and convective energy.

 Aluminum Foil - Glossary from Hormel Foods
It conducts heat well in ovens or grills, withstanding excessive temperatures, so it acts as a good barrier to protect food areas from over baking, such as pie crusts and poultry skins.
Similarly, if an item is being cooked, it may slow some of the cooking process only slightly if the shiny side is on the outside of the item resulting in the heat being reflected.
When storing foods with vinegar, highly salted foods, highly spiced foods, or highly acidic foods such as tomatoes, the food substances can adversely react with the metal, causing it to breakdown and damage the food.

 Aluminum Foil Curlers
The beauty of aluminum foil is that it is easy to find and works well for all lengths and textures of hair from short to very long.
If you decide to create the curlers on dry hair make sure that you are liberal in your use of styling products to give the hair enough dampness to take the curl.
Although the aluminum does absorb the heat from the hair dryer to accelerate the heat, there is no danger of the foil melting.

 Using Aluminum Foil
When cooking with foil (for example, wrapping potatoes for baking), be sure to wrap or cover the item dull side out -- shiny side out will reflect the heat rather than absorb it, and it will take longer to cook.
The reason it is like that is due to the manufacturing process.

 aluminum on Encyclopedia.com
A mixture of powdered aluminum and iron oxide, called thermite, is used in welding because of the large amount of heat liberated when it is ignited.
Commercially, aluminum is prepared by the Hall-Héroult process, which consists essentially of the electrolysis of alumina prepared from bauxite and dissolved in fused cryolite.
In an electric furnace an iron tank lined with carbon serves as the cathode and large blocks of carbon serve as the anode; the electric current generates enough heat to keep the cryolite melted.
