Helps Keep Bananas Fresh
A banana’s special protective peel may help protect its flesh from insects but, the inside of the skin also has a reactive agent, which causes the banana to go bad quickly.
Helps Keep Bananas Fresh
The agent reacts to the air that enters the banana through the stem area and ripens the banana faster. This is where aluminum foil comes in and saves the day. By covering the stem area with aluminum foil, your bananas will stay fresh for up to a week longer.
Useful For Dispensing Light
If you have a shelf or drawer that is deep and doesn’t get a lot of light because of it, then aluminum foil can solve this problem for you. Not only are dark shelves and drawers the ideal nesting place for cockroaches but it’s also difficult to see what’s inside.
Useful For Dispensing Light
To eliminate the darkness simply line your dark shelf or drawer with aluminum foil. The silver will reflect the light and will illuminate the space so you can see more clearly.
