Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 okay, for a couple years now, i've had on my to-do list to replace by microwave. recent memos have inspired me again. but i'm so ill that my " cooking " is reduced to just daily warming up leftovers that someone cooks for me twice a week. washing dishes is also a challenge, so being able to heat, eat, and store food in same bowl is big help for me. i've never used a tabletop toaster-convection oven. is it possible to use that oven like a microwave--that is, to put a bowl of leftovers in the oven to warm it up? what kinds of dishes work for convection oven? pyrex? normal " glass " dishes? enameled steel dishes? in addition to lyme, i also have mercury toxicity and belong to a support list for mercury. just this week there was a long discusion of what dishes and cookware are safe. a couple people called companies and discovered that ALL corelle dishes and corningware use LEAD in the glazes. some of the newer patterns have what the company calls " safe levels of lead, " but some do not even meet the more restictive california standards. so i'm reviewing all my eating paraphernalia. (not only do i have to be concerned about toxins in my food, i also have to worry about toxins in my pots and dishes--where does it end??) i appreciate any help you can offer. kendra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
