I hope that is not true. The old ones were about perfect. |
Best Tupperware is the one full of my favorite food.

Pyrex has changed the formula some and they are more prone to shatter from thermal shock than the old ones, but they are still good. Mostly just don't take it out of the oven and put in on a wet counter or shock it thermally.
Mom just uses her cool whip and butter containers. She reheats everything in a glass bowl though. |
It went from borosilicate to tempered soda-lime some years ago.

About a hundred years ago, I was cooking dinner for a young lady and was hoping to make a good impression if you know what I mean.
Chicken cacciatore was on the menu and the chicken was cooking in a pyrex 13 x 9 dish in the oven. I took it out to add the liquid ingredients, which happened to be quite a bit colder than the glass dish. I should have known better but didn't at the time. I was surprised at how loud it was when the glass exploded. Then to make it worse I cut the begeezus out of my hand cleaning up the mess. We went out to eat at a nice restaurant, and we've been married 28 years so everything worked out well :) But I still don't trust glass around heat. |
I have the same fear when I rinse the coffee pot. I make dang sure it is cooled off before I rinse/wash it.
On a side note on glass hardness. <iframe width="491" height="319" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/xe-f4gokRBs" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="491" height="319" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/24q80ReMyq0" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe> |
