Tiramisu is not as acidic as coffee. It’s pudding.

Maybe! I had Covid last month, but I can't recall ever getting a metallic sensation for anything else. Literally only tonight for something highly acidic served in an aluminum to-go tray?


It’s a very small amount of espresso in tiramisu.

It's best that none of these things exist for very long in aluminum containers.

However you can't "taste" aluminum, OP. A metallic taste in your mouth is probably heartburn or indigestion.


And I bet they prep the slices in the morning, so it wasn't just in the aluminum for 5 minutes, it was likely all day.


soda is 2.5-3.5 and lives in aluminum cans. does soda out of a can taste acidic to you?

oP, I can taste aluminum in certain dishes. I can also often taste when things have been stored in plastics. I’m sort of a super smeller/taster.

I think dessert may have tasted metallic.

Tiramisu is not supposed to have baking soda.

It's true that acidic foods aren't supposed to be cooked or stored in alumimium pans, including coffee. But a one-time exposure won't harm you, OP.

You are imagining things. Coffee is not acidic enough.

We just got to-go food from an Italian restaurant. Entrées were in hard plastic, the dessert was in aluminum to-go trays with the clear plastic top. I am almost positive the tiramisu had an aluminum taste. Am I imagining this or does the acidic coffee used in the bottom of the dessert leach the aluminum into the food?
