Guest guest Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 Has anyone heard anything about those flexible cookware? You know the muffin pans that are made of some kind of rubbery substance. Are they healthy to use? I worry from repeated heating that it would leak or something. Steph Ahhh...imagining that irresistible " new car " smell? Check outnew cars at Autos.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 I have some and don't like them. They wiggle and wobble when full so bread falls as you put it into the over and things spill easily. The Pampered Chef kind has a stabalizing ring and several of the other expensive brands do also, so if you decide to get some, get the more expensive ones. They are worth the difference. As far as are they safe; the jury is still out. It may be 20 years before they discover that we early users poisoner ourselves with chemicles from them. Bear in mind though, that they are just now discovering the poisons we eat when we eat food cooked in aluminum. We have been eating it for 50 years.

Hi Steph, I've been wondering about them too. They are a little pricier than your ordinary coomon-or-garden cookware, so it's not something you want to buy a lot of until you know for sure about safety and, frankly, even if safe, about how much better they are or are not than the 'regular' kind. I'll be waiting to hear too. Love, Pat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 22, 2007 Report Share Posted April 22, 2007 " Silicon Cookware is inert, FDA approved and safe up to 428 degrees F. If heated above its safe range, silicon melts but doesn't outgas toxic vapors. This is apparently because silicon is a manmade blend of sand and oxygen (versus a synthetic plastic). Brightly colored rubbery Silicon cookware includes baking pans, baking sheets, muffin tins, spatulas, ice cube trays, molds, rolling pins and more. It is the only non-reactive, non-stick material. " http://www.rwood.com/Articles/Healthy_Cookware.htm (This is an interesting webpage - browse the rest for your other choices in inert, mildly reactive, and reactive cookware!)

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2007 Report Share Posted April 25, 2007 I got my mom the pink Calphelon ones (mostly because she loves pink anything, and it was the only pink bakeware I've ever seen. ) and they have some metal or somesuch inside the handles and stuff to help them keep their form and be more stable than the less expensive ones. They're still reasonably priced for decent bakeware. Veronica At 02:19 PM 4/22/2007 -0700, you wrote: >I have some and don't like them.
