used carefully. Even microwave
plastic may not be as tolerant of
overcooking conditions as are
glass or ceramic materials and

short periods of overcooking. In
longer exposures to overcooking,
the food and utensils could ignite.
For these reasons: 1) Use microwave
plastics only and use them in
strict compliance with the utensil

2) Do not subject empty utensils
to microwaving. 3) Do not permit
children to use plastic utensils
without complete supervision.
