If You Care 100% Recycled Aluminum Foil - 50 FT

...and that's part of why it's a greener product: you'll consume less foil than if you were using Reynolds Wrap. I don't need thick foil, and you may not either: it's just that we've been trained since childhood to believe thick foil is "normal." Don't let a giant multinational company push you around by telling you what aluminum foil should be.If You Care 100% Recycled Aluminum Foil has gotten a bad wrap (excuse the pun). I use it mostly for covering savory dishes in the oven, and have never once had a problem with this brand. And no, I don't work for the company or its affiliates, I work in the Health Sciences field (read some of my older reviews if you don't believe me).I suspect the negative reviews are often written by (choose one or more of the following) people who:🙊 Do a lot of grilling (admittedly, Reynolds Wrap may be better for some purposes due to its thickness).🙈 Are employed by and/or own stock in the giant multinational corporation Alcoa, the parent company of Reynolds Wrap. It's always good to trash the competition online.🙉 Hate green products because hippies use them, and (despite near consensus among the world's scientists) *still* believe climate change is a hoax (lucky for them, If You Care 100% Recycled Aluminum Foil is great for making tin foil hats).If you don't hate the planet but do hate the If You Care brand, you can buy "Reynolds Wrap Foil from 100% Recycled Aluminum" (which reportedly is as thick as their regular variety). I support the If You Care brand because [1] it works for me despite being greener, and [2] *all* of the company's products are greener.

I love this product mostly because I am helping recycle and eliminate waste in a small way. However, it's also a pretty good product. Not as sturdy as heavy-duty Reynolds Wrap, but better than any store brand. It gets the job done.

The foil works well overall. It is thin as other reviews note, but I never have a problem with it tearing where I don't want. It's usually not a perfectly straight tear out of the box, but it's close enough.BUT, because it is so thin it can cut you if you hit it at the right angle while taut. I got a pretty deep "paper cut" on my finger because I hit the foil at just the right angle while pulling it out of the box, which I've never had happen with any other foil.

Durable. Will buy again.

I wish this was thicker- it rips easily. Not sturdy enough for using on a grill. I want to like it more since it’s recycled and more environmentally friendly than the mainstream brands.

Again another stellar product for the environmentally conscious person. I love the fact that it is made from 100% recycled foil - it's nice to see recycling in action. I myself (after washing the used aluminum foil) recycle it. This foil works really well and is not terribly expensive at all (most eco-products have a reputation for being expensive and this can put people off). I have never had a problem when using this foil for my cooking and baking needs. I also love the fact that there is no plastic packaging/excessive packaging and that the box it comes in is easily recyclable as well.

this aluminum foil is just right. not so thin it tears easily but not really heavy where you have to pay large amount for. it is also recycled which i love because it helps the environment by not making more aluminum plants in poor countries. i also continue to recycle this after i use it

Works well enough and it's good for our planet. What more could you want? Thinner than name brands, but has never been a problem. Turkey & ham roasting, covering dishes, it works on all my needs.
