[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can anyone provide a credible cite for the claim that microwaving plastic releases carcinogens? Not trying to be snarky (I swear), but plastic containers and dishes are often marked as "microwave safe." I cannot help but think that if there were any evidence to suggest that they released carcinogens (or anything else harmful) when microwaved, that there would have been a class action suit, or some action by consumer protection or the FDA. [/quote] PP here who said microwaving was only a concern because of the hotspots. The carcinogen thing has been debunked, but didn't seem worth it to mention it to the snarky EWG-believing commenter. http://www.snopes.com/medical/toxins/cookplastic.asp [/quote]
