If you chop it up into a fine powder and mix it into your food, then yes.

Probably a little but aluminum compounds are harmless. Some dumb rumor started that aluminum causes Alzheimer’s but I’d ignore it. Lots of common clays, rocks etc contain aluminum and the body is proficient at processing it, not a problem

Was asking myself this today

Metal bad, plastic bad, glass seems to be only option for anything

A lot of metals are fine, but most food-grade metals have plastic coatings to prevent corrosion.

Maybe if you're cooking at 750F or greater. Otherwise, no.

Some kind of electrochemical process erodes holes in the foil when I cover leftover pie with foil in the fridge. Is my aluminium tainted pie going to kill me?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium
>aluminium is well tolerated by plants and animals
>Despite its widespread occurrence in the Earth's crust, aluminium has no known function in biology
>Aluminium salts are remarkably nontoxic
>In most people, aluminium is not as toxic as heavy metals. Aluminium is classified as a non-carcinogen by the United States Department of Health and Human Services.[159] There is little evidence that normal exposure to aluminium presents a risk to healthy adult,[160] and there is evidence of no toxicity if it is consumed in amounts not greater than 40 mg/day per kg of body mass.[159] Most aluminium consumed will leave the body in feces; most of the small part of it that enters the bloodstream, will be excreted via urine.[161]

This comes with a caveat though:
>Aluminium, although rarely, can cause vitamin D-resistant osteomalacia, erythropoietin-resistant microcytic anemia, and central nervous system alterations. People with kidney insufficiency are especially at a risk.[159] Chronic ingestion of hydrated aluminium silicates (for excess gastric acidity control) may result in aluminium binding to intestinal contents and increased elimination of other metals, such as iron or zinc; sufficiently high doses (>50 g/day) can cause anemia.[159]
