Can you recycle the tinfoil wrappers with tin?

Have you tried Newman's Own peanut butter cups? They are really yummy and more importantly they use Fair Trade Chocolate.

I have tried these and agree, they do rock. Someone had a bowl full of the little reeses and I couldn't help myself. It's definitely a weakness. The fact that i only had one had more to do with time than desire.

I probably shouldn't call it tin foil, it's really aluminum foil. I guess it's a throwback to my upbringing as that's what my mom called it. I wonder whether there was tin in it at some point. The reason I didn't recycle these is they ahve this weird coating and i doubt they can be recycled. Gonna bring them to the recycler and ask.
