https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/81...iny-side-down/ DON'T BE FOILED Chef Tom Kerridge claims you should always use tin foil with the ‘shiny side down’ and it sends Twitter users into meltdown – but do YOU think he’s right? I've always put the shiny side up

I like to mix it up a bit.
Top or bottom....the only thing I won’t do is put two pieces on anything opposite way on. |

Shiny side down is better for keeping things warm as it reflects the heat. At least that’s the logic I’ve always used. If I’m just using it to preserve something though I’ll go shiny side up.

you put the shiny side on the inside as it keeps the heat in. If the shiny side were on the outside it reflects the heat away from the food. It's basic science

I've been doing it wrong for years, I thought the shiny side attracted the heat

I use shiny side down when I'm cooking with it, like the shiny side would be facing the chicken breasts that I'm wrapping or facing down onto my casserole dish for example
But when I'm wrapping sandwiches or similar with it I don't pay attention either way |

Not 'wrap it' but fold it a little loosely.
