If you’re only an occasional inhabitant of the kitchen you may not know this, but letting oil and grease slide down your kitchen pipes is a very bad idea, and will likely come back to haunt you at a later date. Using paper towels also isn’t the most effective, as they quickly get soaked and start to drip the oily greasy substance all over your hands.
Next time you’re in the kitchen frying up something good, take some aluminum foil, shape it into a cup, then when you’re done just pour all the oily mess into the aluminum cup. Once you’re done simply cover the aluminum by folding it carefully, wrapping it with some paper or plastic, and throwing it away in the garbage. Now your kitchen pipes are safe and it’s time to enjoy a wonderful meal.
Block the Government From Controlling Your Thoughts
If you're one of the increasingly frustrated citizens afraid of the government spying on us and taking control of our electrical devices, there's a good chance that you've also contemplated whether or not government agents can take control of your mind. This is usually done through wireless radio signals, and lucky for you, aluminum foil can help block out those pesky signals.
One particularly useful trait of aluminum foil is that it can effectively isolate you from radio signals due to its isolating nature. By wrapping your head with aluminum foil, you can guarantee that your brain will be free from outside radio influences, at the risk of looking like a total nutcase of course.
Clean Your Iron
No one likes wearing wrinkly clothing but let's face it, ironing is a big hassle. Irons rack up dirt, grime, and rust over time, making them much harder to use than when you first got them. When people see their iron beginning to deteriorate, they usually start shirking their ironing duties until they eventually give up altogether.
There is a simple solution to this problem. Take some aluminum foil, roll it into a crunchy ball, and scrape it against the bottom of your iron to get it nice and clean again. Just be careful not to scratch the flat surface of the iron, and it will look brand new again.
Keeping Your Spectacle Frame Safe
Glasses are usually pretty expensive and we try as best we can to protect them from bending or getting their frames ruined. If you wear glasses you'd know that one sort of activity that has a high potential of ruining your glasses is dying your hair. This problem forces you into what looks like a binary choice: either keep the glasses on and risk ruining your frame, or take them off and do it all half-blind.
Thanks to the wonders of aluminum foil, you can actually choose the third option - just wrap the frame of your glasses in aluminum foil, and now you're free to dye your hair or undergo any other head and facial related activities with no worries or concerns to your trusty little seeing partners.
No More Melting Ice Cream!
Children absolutely love ice cream, but one of the most annoying aspects as a parent is that somehow their ice cream always manages to drip all over their clothes or your furniture and it is very hard to clean up after. There's nothing more annoying than running around after your kid cleaning up ice cream drops.
This can be easily solved by using some aluminum foil. Simply take a piece of aluminum paper and shape a disposable bib out of it, wrap it around the ice cream facing upwards, and now all of the melting parts will fall right into your aluminum bib. It's safe and fun for the kids while giving you the peace of mind you deserve.
