I always cringe and unable to eat with that spoon due to the taste and sensation after it touches aluminium foil.
Why is this?
Thank you!
In: Chemistry
Galvanic reaction. I am very sensitive to this as well.
Essentially, electrons are transferring from the aluminum to the steel.
Here’s an explainer https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galvanic_corrosion
It doesn’t. It’s all in your head. I guarantee if I gave you two spoons. You would have no idea which one touched aluminium foil.
Aluminium is a different metal to the steel of the spoon.
It’s quite possible that you just don’t like the taste of aluminium.
How are you with drinking from aluminium cans?
