Aluminum foils are generally considered safe for use in cooking and food storage. They are made from thin sheets of aluminum, which is a non-toxic metal. However, there are concerns about the potential for aluminum to leach into food, particularly acidic foods, although the amounts are typically very small and not considered harmful. The use of aluminum foil is regulated, and it is not considered a significant health risk when used as intended. It's always best to follow the manufacturer's guidelines for safe use and avoid using foil in ways that could lead to damage or increased risk, such as at very high temperatures.
