Article Grading: The following comments were left by the quality and importance raters: (edit · refresh) no mention of why it is unsuitable for microwave oven use. Baby dishware is often made from melamine resin. Curious as to the safety issues (or lack thereof) involved. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.100.167.125 (talk) 12:36, 31 August 2007 (UTC) |

[edit] melamine dinnerware
This is pathetic! There should be major coverage of melamine dinnerware. Significant cultural-historical subject. Popular dinnerware for middle-class US daily use in 1950s? Very durable and practical, good for institutional use; still in use. Prolon currently makes heavy-duty versions for the foodservice industry, in Port Gibson, Mississippi. They say it is not microwave-safe, warning: "Do not place ... in a standard or microwave oven. Do not expose to dry heat in excess of 185 degrees F or direct flame."[1]
The title of the article is a problem. How is other dinnerware covered in WP? Should the title be changed, or should there be a separate article? -69.87.203.39 (talk) 22:57, 17 April 2008 (UTC)
