Foil wrap is handy for covering cooked meals. This will keep the moisture in and the heat in for longer.

Do not reheat the food
Studies have shown that microwaving food in aluminium foil causes the food to cook unevenly due to the reflection of microwave energy off of the foil's aluminium surface.

Do not roast in it
Because the tomato is an acidic fruit, it has the potential to react with the aluminium on the foil, turning the food into something poisonous.

Do not bake
Remember that aluminium is heat conductive, thus the batter or dough that touches the foil will absorb more heat. Your cookies and pastries may burn.

Keep non-perishable food
Aluminium foil is a fantastic tool for retaining moisture. By storing non-perishable and dry items in it, you may be able to increase the shelf life of the foods and also seal in the moisture to keep them fresh.
