Question

Why should we store food items in aluminium containers eventhough metals react with food.
wrong answers will be reported​

Answer 1

Answer:

As we know Aluminum is a very reactive metal, so it reacts vigorously with acids and bases, so when an acidic food item is kept in an aluminum container then aluminum reacts with organic acids to form various toxic salts, which is harmful for human beings.

Answer 2

Explanation:

aluminium does not react with food. It has a low density and it resists corrosion. At home, people use aluminum foil for food storage, to cover baking surfaces and to wrap foods, such as meats, to prevent them from losing moisture while cooking. People may also use aluminum foil to wrap and protect more delicate foods, like vegetables, when grilling them.
