Shattering Glass Update

Late last year, Consumer Reports analyzed more than 150 reports to the government of glass baking dishes suddenly shattering. Most involved Pyrex and Anchor Hocking.

Since then Consumer Reports has heard of 145 new incidents. Although those reports represent only a tiny fraction of the hundreds of millions of pieces of glass bakeware in American kitchens, Consumer Reports is urging the government to investigate.

And it's not just bakeware that's shattering. In the latest investigation, there were eight reports involving glass bowls and seven involving glass measuring cups.

Some shattered when hot water was poured into them, and others shattered in the microwave when they were used to heat foods, even though they are labeled microwave-safe.

Pyrex and Anchor Hocking glass bakeware are now made of a type of glass called soda lime that has been heat strengthened. Decades ago they were made of borosilicate. Although it's not clear when the switch occurred, the manufacturers say soda lime is less likely to break when it's dropped or bumped, and they say it's equally resistant to temperature changes.
