Question from Sue Mironer
Hi Debra,
This was posted to my Facebook page today. I’m concerned about the black plastic utensils that I ordered with my Extrema cookware. Are they safe? Are others I bought like it at other stores safe?

Debra’s Answer
Just went to the Xtrema website to double check what their utensils are made of and found they are not including them in their sets any more.
I remembered that they were made of nylon and found on their site that it’s OK to use nylon utensils. They are not plastic like the Dollar Store utensils.
I also saw they are now selling my favorite brand of wooden utensils, which is what I use with my Xtrema cookware.
