For decades, aluminum foil has been the material of choice for storing leftovers. However, it can impart metallic flavors to acidic foods and corrode over time.
Keeping acidic foods away from aluminum is crucial as they can degrade the material, leading to the potential ingestion of aluminum particles and health risks.
Experts recommend limiting aluminum foil to short-term storage like one or two days. For longer-lasting freshness, use airtight glass or plastic containers.
Salty foods can also react negatively with aluminum, raising concerns about food safety when grilled in foil—further emphasizing the need for precaution.
