Is it bad to accidentally eat a tiny bit of aluminum foil?

Asked by sfgal (283points) May 31st, 2007
I live in San Francisco, which means I eat a lot of burritos. My boyfriend always carefully examines the burrito when he peels back the foil it is wrapped in, becuase he insists that eating tiny flecks of aluminum foil is bad for you, and sometimes when you cut a burrito in half tiny pieces of foil can end up in the burrito. Will ingesting small amounts of foil make you sick???
