Did You Know
Some glass dishware, cookware, and food storage containers (e.g., Pyrex and Corningware), are made from borosilicate glass. Borosilicate is a glass blend with a higher melting point that is NOT easily recycled through traditional methods. This type of glassware can contaminate other glass recyclables, so it's best to place this item in the garbage if it cannot be reused.
