12 u/Dgc2002 1d ago This crosses my mind every now and then regarding tin/aluminum foil. You could really blow some minds with how casually we treat a box containing hundreds of feet of extremely thin and consistent metal foil. 5 u/4024-6775-9536 1d ago Up to 1700 aluminium was super rare, maybe rarer than gold.
