www.familyhandyman.com/article/stop-using-vintage-corelle-dinnerware "If you have a set of Corelle dinnerware from before 2005, then this is a must-read...." My notes: Do you have a set? Have you been using them? We don't have any. Excerpt: "Do I Need to Throw My Corelle Dishes Away? Not necessarily. Corelle products purchased after 2005 are safe and comply with FDA regulations. Now, if your dishes are older, that gets trickier. Avoid eating off older Corelle dinnerware if it shows obvious signs of deterioration — worn glaze, melting or chipping paint, etc. To make sure you’re not consuming lead, avoid eating hot foods on the dishes or drinking hot beverages from any cups. And don’t put them in the microwave or store food in them for long periods."

Oof, glad I never had anything like that. I should get a set of fancy dishes, if that is a thing anymore.

I have some Corelle cookware but not the dishes. I think they're made differently? They're definitely worth a lot more in the second hand shops.

I should get a set of fancy dishes, if that is a thing anymore. There are people who like fancy dishes for get-togethers. I have some Corelle cookware but not the dishes. I think they're made differently? They're definitely worth a lot more in the second hand shops. I can't find articles on the cookware. Are they newer or older?

I know my grandparents and older relatives have fancy stuff, but I don't think anyone my generation do, mostly due to costs and not having get together and what not.

I just looked and I thought my brand was corelle, but it's Corning Ware and they're the casserole dishes. Corelle made some too and I think my sister has those.

We used to have big get-togethers when I was young. Now, everybody has dispersed! I just looked and I thought my brand was corelle, but it's Corning Ware and they're the casserole dishes. Corelle made some too and I think my sister has those. At least you know you are safe with Corning Ware

I love mine and wanted more, thinking it would be cheap, but NO!! I think they have maintained their value over the years.
