Seag420 Reviewed by Seag420 on 11-03-2005. Is Aluminum Foil bad? Is aluminum foil bad even if you only use it like twice a month tops? i always use some aluminum foil for a nice gravity bong but never on custom pipes. I was wondering if it would be bad to put it on a homemade bong and use it as the bowl or should i find a better bowl? Rating: 5

Everything gives off a taste.

Suck on a metal pipe without lighting it.

Suck on a glass pipe without lighting it.

Taste a difference. Exactly.

It is important to note that aluminum foil, especially true for 'non-stick' foil and aluminum cans is coated with one or more other agents. Aluminum cans I can say for certain are coated with layers of ink and a layer for shine on the outside and another layer of something on the inside so the drink doesn't react with the metal.

NO NO NO NO NO NO

I can't stress this enough.

ALUMINUM FOIL IS NOT BAD FOR YOU!

It CAN be bad for you and please read ALL OF THIS to understand.

NO STUDY has proven that aluminum foil can potentially harm you through cooking, heating, or using as a heat conduit. ALTHOUGH, if you heat aluminum foil to the point that it begins to evaporate and burn, the FUMES FROM THAT CAN HURT YOU.

Now, for bud usage.

Do you hold your flame on the bowl for 25-30 second? Do you use a torch lighter for 5-10 seconds? Do you start a big bonfire and hold your aluminum foil boil over the fire for the duration of the session?

Do you get black tar like smoke arising from your bowl when heating?

NONE OF THOSE SYMPTOMS = a nice safe happy smoking session.

Your posts have been awful straightforward and informative of late. How strange.

Just remember that aluminum foil, and aluminum cans are two completely different things. the melting point of foil is a lot lower then the melting point of a can.

What about when you're soldering things? You get all kinds of metallic fumes doing that.
