I use stainless and glass everywhere I can. I cringe when I see people microwaving stuff in plastic, sytrofoam or *microwavable* containers. I can’t help but wonder what chemical reactions are occurring when those microwaves hit the plastic or the plastic becomes hot from the food.

All our “made in China” ceramic eating dishes are in a box in the shop outside. I’ll try to get a lead testing kit.

Plastic? Never touch the stuff! (or microwaves!)

I quit using my MW altogether for the reasons you stated. At work, they banned heating baby formula in the MW because the Docs say it alters the nutrition factor.
