Review:
Over 150 incidents of glass 'bakeware' shattered (some with serious
injuries).
Borosilicon (often made in Europe) versus soda lime (which is more
shatter resistant).
They filled bakeware with dry sand, baked at 450 degrees F for 80
minutes, and then put it on wet graniteand.
The result was that 10/10 times the American-made soda lime bakeware
broke while the European Borosilicon didn't break (but most did at 500
degrees).
Revealingly, the ancient American Borosilicon did last at 500 degrees.
Didnt know there was soda glass bakeware made in USA. Pyrex isthe only
glass bakeware I know of.
