Hi Wendy,
I remember getting the Visionware at Canadian Tire (cheap!) and at
Zellers in Hanover, Ontario back in the 90's. I know you weren't
supposed to use the green scrubbies (would scratch and dull the
finish on glass) but I got lazy and gently tried to remove the cooked
(sometimes burned) food. It not only dulled the glass but left a
metallic sheen that looked like aluminum. I got ahold of a customer
service rep from Corningware and he said there was aluminum silicate
in the glass as well as in the white corningware products.
We also advise patients to stay away from cast iron due to the many
problems with iron overload (hemachromatosis.) We tell them to use
the stainless steel pots that will stick to a magnet. Today's
stainless steel pots and pans are made with all kinds of alloys
(including the 5-ply, 6-ply and 7-ply ones) and do not adhere to
magnets. Occasionally I'll find a stainless pot or pan at a garage
sale here in Hawaii. When we lived in Canada, it was fairly easy to
find these old cookware at garage sales or swap meets especially in
the smaller towns and villages.
Aloha, Sharie
