I would have to say that plastic wrap is better at keeping food fresh because it is more of an air tight seal. where as aluminum foil is better at keeping food warm because it reflects heat.

hope this helps

Aluminium foil typically keeps food hotter for longer than plastic due to its better insulation properties. Aluminium foil reflects heat and traps it around the food, helping to retain its temperature. Plastic, on the other hand, is a poor insulator and may not retain heat as effectively.
