I think the risk of aluminum is a little blowen out of proportion.

if we do all our cooking and eating with uncoated aluminum then the average person will ingest 3.5mg of Al / day, where as one antacid contains 50mg. Several Dr's are now listing Al as a very low factor in Alshimers now also. yes it is a concern, but anyone who worries about using foil on there food in the oven or on the BBQ when they chew a couple antacids a night is just silly
