I need to buy the mini ones for my businessBut not knowing their actual name is limiting my internet search to order them
aluminum is very biologically unavailable- most forms of aluminium you will come in contact with wont really react with your bodyAnd yes aluminium is actually coated in a thin layer of its own oxide (aluminium oxide) to prevent the entire thing rustingIf it was unsafe to use alot more people would know about itYou are totally fine to grill things in foil and to put foil covered things in the oven!
The food thing is true.don't do that If your talking about Aluminum like in can, rods, screws, etcYour ok.its an alloyNow If you talking about Lab quality refined pure Al+3that oxidizes fast enough that you cam see it turn from silver to white before your eyesI've seen Pure Al stored in oil filled glasses before, but I used it in small cubes that just had to have the outer layer of oxidized stuff shaved off in oxygen free glove boxesThat stuff might dry your hands a bitSo no worries.
Aluminum pie pans, little ones are called tart pans.
