Just wondered if you knew the answer to that question, but if you don't , perhaps you can tell me which side is best for cooking?
It makes no difference which side of the foil faces out, nor does it make much difference what shape you make the hat inAs for cooking, from the Reynolds Wrap FAQ: Which side of Reynolds Wrap? Aluminum Foil should I use, the shiny or the dull side? Actually, it makes no difference which side of the aluminum foil you use—both sides do the same fine job of cooking, freezing and storing foodThe difference in appearance between dull and shiny is due to the foil manufacturing processIn the final rolling step, two layers of foil are passed through the rolling mill at the same timeThe side coming in contact with the mill's highly polished steel rollers becomes shinyThe other side, not coming in contact with the heavy rollers, comes out with a dull or matte finishThe exception is when using Reynolds Wrap? Release? Non-Stick Aluminum FoilThe non-stick coating is applied during manufacturing to the dull side of the foilAlways place the non-stick (dull) side toward the food.
You cannot dye anything without dyeYou cannot paint anything without paintYou cannot frost a cake without frostingSorry to sound harsh, but this is reality Why not either go buy orange dye (I recommend RIT brand- sold at a fabric store) or how about this: ORANGE YARN? JeezI hope you don't have children to pass on your intelligence to.
