Sol: I read the link on Vision Ware. I'm going to write Corning and get more info. Who wrote the info about Corning at Mothering - there is no reference? I'm beginning to wonder if there is any safe cooking pots or cooking ware? Seems there are drawbacks to most. Whitaker and Mercola are pushing their brands, too, as safe, but I'll wait for more objective third party tests. I gave up my glass top stove about ten years ago and went to natural gas when they finally piped natural gas into the "outback" country where I live. i know from studying ceramics and pottery years ago that there is lead in certain ceramic glazes - so I avoid most ceramic plates and bowels. I don't use plastic to store anything - only glass. I have a set of German dishes - I'll send you the name later - that I feel are safe, but can't prove. It gets more complicated as we go along here.
