Let’s say you’re out with your friends on an impromptu night of camping. You guys have everything assembled and ready. The tents are hitched, the fire is roaring, the campfire songs are being sung… pretty soon you begin to get hungry, but oh no! You’ve forgotten your frying pan at home and nobody else has one!
Luckily for you, after reading this article you’ve decided to carry aluminum foil with you wherever you go. Now all you have to do in order to save the day for everyone is to take a few branches, stick them together in a large square, and tape aluminum foil across them as a bowl-like surface. Congratulations! You have just created your very own DIY frying pan.
Professional Bacon Roasting
Bacon is one of the most delicious breakfast foods in the entire world. It's simple to make, fairly cheap, and tastier than most other meats due to its high percentages of fat. Anyone who has ever professionally cooked bacon will tell you that one of the best ways to do it is on a rigged and curvy surface.
The ridges help your bacon slices stay elevated, giving them hot air from all sides and getting them cooked and crispy the whole way through. But if you don't have a rack with ridges on it you can always take some aluminum foil and style it in the same way. Now that's some restaurant-level cooking!
Create A DIY Food Platter
Many of us love to host. Sometimes we really want to serve our guests some cute little finger foods but find that we currently don't have any proper food platters to use for such a purpose. Maybe our favorite serving dish is dirty at the time or maybe we don’t actually have one for this kind of event - but no worries, the Aluminum foil will do just as well!
One possible solution is to take a cardboard box and some aluminum foil, and simply cover the entire cardboard box with the Aluminum foil. This will create a clean, good-looking, and very special serving platter for you and your guests. We're sure they would be thrilled that you've thought of them enough to craft your own platter just for them.
Boost Seed Growth With Aluminum
Like most tiny growing things, baby seedlings need all the help they can get to turn into big adult plants. If you want to help your seeds grow faster into healthy plants, you can give them a serious boost by using some aluminum foil. When planting your seeds, create tiny aluminum foil planters to cover and place your seeds in, in order to give them some extra sunlight.
This will help your seeds grow faster and blossom into the great plants that they are meant to be. We highly recommend this habit if you have a green thumb and are going to be planting seeds because these little guys need the sun as much as we need water.
Protect Your Credit Cards
Regardless of how much money you may have in your bank account, hackers and thieves will target anyone. In recent years, a new trend has begun. Wireless credit card thieves use magnetic signals to steal your money without ever touching you. They do this by using proximity devices that scan and use your credit cards.
You can easily prevent this type of theft by wrapping your wallet in aluminum foil. This will completely isolate your credit cards and any other electronic device from external communication, being the equivalent of putting your wallet in an underground safe. Who knew that aluminum foil could actually protect your bank account?
