Thank you! I Googled about the toxicity of silicone and found your blog. I know it is not quite relevant but I was looking to find out about the toxicity of the silicone cases used for iPhones and am relieved they are not.

I guess when in doubt stick with stainless steel or teflon. As long as it doesn’t chip it should be fine.

Some of the so-called “silicone” bakeware (the cheaper ones naturally) are not 100% silicone and so the odor people are smelling when they bake in it is probably PLASTIC, which is used a filler!

You did a lot of research and so did Debra Ladd, but I do not think that materials published by manufacturers or their associations or even the MSDS reports, which are not often verified by independent sources, are accurate places to get unbiased facts about the dangers of products.

I agree with the posters who indicate that the jury is not yet in on the safety of silicone products, and I for one will not expose myself or my family to foods heated to high temperatures in materials of questionable construction.

Isn’t parchment paper silicone coated? At least when I looked it up on Wikipedia it said it was. Maybe there are other kinds. Anyway, just a thought…
