Aluminum foil, the common kitchen tool used for cooking in an oven and keeping food warm until dinnertime, actually has a lot of uses.

For instance, a proper wrapping of aluminum foil around your head will keep your mind from being read by aliens and will prevent the government from controlling your movements via remote control.

Seriously, though, aluminum foil is excellent for a wide number of purposes from cooking your food without a fire to sharpening your scissors and protecting your sensitive electronics from an EMP burst.

You can even use aluminum foil to contribute to the heat output of your home's radiator and keep your house or apartment warmer in the winter.
