Is this Glass?

Must run in my family Nic. My mum once tried heating up hotpot, on the gas ring, in a pyrex dish. Luckily no-one was nearby when the dish literally shattered to pieces and potatoes, carrots and hot gravy etc. were propelled all over the kitchen.  :shock:
It was a frightening experience for an 8 year old child, but I look back at it now and I have to smile.  :)

Whoops!!! I did that too when I was a "young married" and trying to impress with a goulash in pyrex dish on top of gas flame. !! You live and learn!  Well, the label didn't say NOT to put it on a flame

I use to have a couple of these in the 70s  8)  and I thought they were Pyrex.  I've got another similar set (very 70s also) stored away some where.  I think that they might have been made in France ... I'll have to have a look now :shock:

So the moral of this thread is that if you want to find out if your storage jar is pyrex.... put it on a gas flame and run for your life!  :lol:
