Yes, tin foil, or aluminum foil, is generally safe to use for cooking and food storage. However, it is best to avoid using it with acidic foods, like tomatoes or vinegar, as this can cause aluminum to leach into the food. Additionally, while occasional use is considered safe, some studies suggest that high intake of aluminum may have health implications, so moderation is advisable. Always ensure that the foil is used properly to avoid any potential hazards.
