Question from Steve Savitz

I recently bought this baking dish from Bed Bath and Beyond and it felt so light that I realized that it couldn’t be pure glass. I called CorningWare and the rep told me it’s made of a proprietary substance called “Vitrelle” – the same material as they used with Corel dishes for years. They told me that CorningWare always does extensive testing ont their products. Does anyone know if there are any hidden hazards to using this?

Thanks.

Debra’s Answer

Vitrelle is a laminated tempered glass product made with three layers of two types of glass. I don’t know of any negative health effects.
