Million dollar question; do the scrambled eggs stick to them???
We’ll likely find out Sunday!
I grew up with corning ware and don't remember them ever breaking. So when my daughter went to college I got her a couple bowls and plates to use in the dorm. She broke them somehow! I was very surprised.
Why not get some Corelle?Another reluctant purchase (I seem to make quite a few of these reluctant purchases!) this time of crockery.
My lot are clumsy. They break things all the time. So when they finally stopped manufacturing the design I’d had for a good 10 years or more I purchased the cheap Jungle Book delf to tide us over.
Eventually I concluded I need to get something I can easily replace one plate or one bowl of for everyday use, something they’ll hopefully manufacture forever!
I couldn’t do any of that with the Jungle book stuff it’s sets or 12 which means while the plates have dwindled from 16 to only 7 I still have 14 bowls and side plates
Enter the crockery I didn’t think I’d ever buy. It’s heavy, clunky and expensive.

I ordered 6 of each to try out over a year ago and they’re ok. I can live with it but didn’t order anymore.
Then another plate got smashed over Christmas and now there’s not enough for a family of four for a whole day.
These are rarely discounted in the sale to any great degree but right now a set is hugely reduced so I had to.
So yer new crockery is on its way. Not sure how I’ll get on with it. Time will tell.
But I do know if one gets smashed I won’t be upset because I can just buy one more, plus if I want to get shot of it there will be plenty of takers!
I posted before I read this!
Now why the heck do they call them rubber when they are silicone?
They don't stick to my silicone. They will stick to my vinyl ones (only good for up to 400F).
I just looked it up, and the internet says that silicone is considered a type of synthetic rubber.
Peeps writing the advertising that *know* things...
Do you have dollar stores in the UK? My neighbor had bought a bunch of plates there (she had two kids living at home) for $1-$2 each that weren't ugly and she didn't care if they got broken or not as it was cheap to replace.Corelle is what we had in Spain, It’s popular there, I say had because they smashed through them pretty fast
Nothing is sturdy enough for my lot. The main stuff I used for a very long time was a good quality bone china and it doesn’t come tougher than that. That was bought individually at £22 per plate but it was worth it because they lasted the longest and could take a hell of a lot of hits before breaking. Plus I could replace an individual piece as they were broken.
Shame they discontinued it.
So I’m not really interested in anything that I have to buy in a set.
I have bought four sets of the Jungle Book crockery. This means I now have only 7 plates and 14 of everything else, theres no way I’m buying another set and having 18 cereal bowls and side plates towering over everything else whilst the dinner plate smashing continues to dwindle those reserves
The Le Creuset plates will do just fine. They are freezer, microwave, oven and grill safe and the 6 test plates and bowls I’ve had for a year are still all in tact. Although admittedly they haven’t had to bear the full force of being used everyday yet
Well the internet has a synthetic brain.I just looked it up, and the internet says that silicone is considered a type of synthetic rubber.
That’s the type of route I went down for my son’s crockery for their flat, bought a ton of them.
