Cooking eggs with foil?

Me and a friend heard about being able to cook any kind of eggs, particulary scrambled eggs on a frying pan that was lined with aluminum foil so that the eggs are cooking on the foil lined inside of a pan to keep from cleaning anything afterwards.yet i seem to think that this is either unsafe or gonna at least make them taste different.anyone else heard this or know that its no good?

Answer:

Aluminum leaches into foodAluminum was found to cause Alzheimer's diseaseAcidic foods are especially prone to aluminum leaching (I don't remember the pH of eggs) However, having worked in the restaurant industry for years, most pans used in food service are aluminumA lot of pans used in home cooking are also aluminumI heard a rumor that the FDA was going to make a rule change in the food service industry and abolish all aluminum cookware from restaurant/food service kitchensIt probably won't happen for a few years, anyway.
