Tin foil is not biologic, like food, and can not be processed by the organs.

Smaller dosages should not be a severe problem, but if alot of tin foil is consumed, immediately seek medical assistance. The dangers of consuming aluminum is debated; but since it is considered a toxic metal (to the body), making sure to minimize intake is a reasonable decision.

Nothing much other than having some more festive than usual stool a few days later.
