Never ever wrap a baking potato in foil. This foil idea is a cheap
restaurant trick..so they can bake hundreds of potatoes ln the morning
and serve then at supper in the evening. If you insist in wrapping your
potato in foil you would be better off nuking it. There have been many
threads on this in the past and wrapping a potato in foil and calling it
baked is just wrong.
