Is the material approved by FDA as "food grade"? What's it made of and shouldn't Excalibur provide that information?

ParaFlexx Premium are PTFE coated non-stick sheets. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is a synthetic fluoropolymer of tetrafluoroethylene that has numerous applications. The best known brand name of PTFE is Teflon by DuPont Co.While PTFE is stable and nontoxic at lower temperatures, it begins to deteriorate after the temperature of cookware reaches about 260 C (500 F), and decomposes above 350 C (662 F). These degradation by-products can be lethal to birds, and can cause flu-like symptoms in humans. In May, 2003, the environmental research and advocacy organization Environmental Working Group filed a 14-page brief with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission petitioning for a rule requiring that cookware and heated appliances bearing non-stick coatings carry a label warning of hazards to people and to birds

All I know is that it is mica-based pearlescent pigment, and it is FDA approved for food.

The mold is high grade silicone and can certainly handle the high temps however, the manufacture is the one that must certify whether the silicone is food grade or not. This is from China and there is just no way to determine from the data provided whether it is food grade or not. Best to go with the ones that say "Food Grade" Silicone, or to purchase where you can talk to the vendor, like on the ETSY web site.

Whether these are technically "food grade" approved buckets is debatable. #2 HDPE is one of the preferred plastics for food grade, but according to the FDA food grade products should ALSO have either a glass/fork logo or words indicating "food grade approved". http://www.virtualweberbullet.com/plastics.html#foodgradeThat said, I have never seen a 5-gallon bucket marked as such. Both the buckets and the Gamma Lids are cheaper at Home Depot. They list theirs as "food storage" which is up to the Buyer to define....

I'm sorry but I have no idea. I never received this item because it's FDA not approved.

So very sorry that I do not know if the unit is made of 18/10 stainless steel. Please try to contact Excalibur for that type of answer, as it is not mentioned in the description. I can tell you that it is easy to keep clean and I've been extremely pleased with the purchase.

I cannot speak for the company, or much more about the product itself, besides what is on the label. There is the statement about the FDA not evaluating the claims, so no, it is not FDA approved. And there is also nothing about GMP. It's just saying no GMOs, no fillers, no preservatives, or artificial colors. Hope this helps!

Yes, it is 100% stainless steel. Food grade means you can use this stainless steel with food. Some stainless have additives that can not be used with food.

The food grade is amorphous. Check out Wolfcreekranch.com and it will explain everything you need to know about it.

I looked all over the bowls and there is no indication if the silicone is FDA approved. It may be on the packaging, but that is long gone. Sorry.

The booklet says under product features: bpa free material. Under specifications under raw material it says all food - grade

I would like more information about the material it is made from also. people who use these bags and the producer are probably interested in health, so I'm sure they've researched what is a very safe material? Hopefully. It would be nice to share that information.

Ours was not labeled as food grade. However it is a decent plastic. We've washed ours and use it for dry foods. We're not experts but believe it is generally safe to use this funnel for food as long as the food is not hot which might cause the plastic to release potentially dangerous chemicals.

Yes, Living Clay is FDA monitored, approved as a food grade supplement. It undergoes strict quality controls regularly.

It looks like silicon. Yes, you can use it with food. I have done it and it works perfectly.

This is what a customer service rep emailed me: "Hi, The Take and Toss products are made of polypropylene, that warning is just stating that it conforms to those regulations so that it is able to be sold in the state of California." But I'm still kinda lost... am I just overly tired or does that reply not make any sense?
