Like someone else said, we take too many things for granted.

I thought the making of the foil is easy since it doesnt cost so much.... never knew about how complicated it is.

Upload more please ^^

^I agree

I always thought aluminium had additivies, not 100% pure aluminium, because aluminium itself is usually quite brittle.

its a natural gas furnace which means it burns oil, and that means its polluting the earth, and that means we will all be dying sooner because we want foil.
