Natural food safety without BPA plastics; nonstick vs stainless; stoneware vs glassware?
with all this research coming out about BPA and plastics, i have several questions about cooking and storage 1 are plastic storage containers like gladware safe as long as you don't put them in the dishwasher? what about the freezer? if you can't freeze them and similar things like ziplock freezer bags, what should you freeze your food IN?2 i've thrown away my nonstick pans because of what i've read about coatings leaching into food. is stainless the best?3 what about baking in stoneware vs glassware? i've read old stoneware can leach lead into food, but obviously the newer stuff corningware, corelle wouldn't do that. but overall, is glassware safer even if it doesn't cook as evenly? i bought some stoneware corningware and it says not to soak the pans in water, which would seeminly make food removal rather difficult. been looking for glass casserole pans and can't find any.thanks
Need help with a food safety issue?
I made some Kim chi pickled cabbage well over 1 month ago. I went down stairs to check it and there is mold on the liquid of the ceramic container I was pickling it in. The cabbage is about 5 inches below the surface of the water where the mold is . If I removed the mold will the cabbage be safe to eat or should I chuck the whole thing and start over?

Is this a food safety issue with mayonaisse?
My local food chain has a large OUTSIDE display of mayonaisse. It has been very hot here and this mayo has been on display in heat of excess of 85 to 90 degrees for like 2 weeks now. The mayo is available for shoppers to pick up. It is an enclosed area with carts, but nonetheless, still out in the heat. My concern is if this is a food safety issue and can mayo be dangerous to eat after that type of storage. Thanks for any opinions

Using an eletric food warmer Food Safety?
Hello, regarding food safety.. anyone knows how long food can be kept in an electric food warmer?We have an electric food warmer which looks like a cabinet 2ft height 3ft width and its quite old but it heats leftovers very well. Not sure at what temperature it heats food as we no longer have the manual but my fingers would burn if I touch a warmed plate in the device.I kept some food in the food warmer aroud 8 pm for someone to have it at midnight but that person never came and the food remained in the warmer till the morning around 12 hours. Is it safe to eat this food or move it in the fridge or shall I just throw it? tastes and smells good though half a chicken, vegetables, soup and some rice
