Does Silicone cookware/bakeware have any toxins in it that could transfer into your food at any time, cold or hot?

Answer by  fan587 (25)

Silicon is made of mostly sand and oxygen. It also contains trace elements of carbon, aluminium and titanium. Those elements are easily found in most cookware especially pots and pans. Silicon is technically non-reactive and withstands extremely high temperatures meaning the likelihood of seepage is zero.

Yes,toxins or foreign chemicals pass from a silicon dish to food. Especially the first time they are used,if the average temperature is increased and if a microwave is used.
