Does hot food on children's plastic ware pose a danger to their health?

From link below -I believe this applies to heating ANY plastic serving plate. "Good question! The short answer is: Yes, chemicals can migrate into the food.

The issue is whether they are harmful. I had heard about this topic several years ago, when it first got some publicity on TV magazine programs. Being one who always was cautious of chemicals, I took note, and always heat food in my microwave on glass/ceramic cookware or plates, covered with a ceramic or glass bowl.

In researching this question, I noticed that web sites published by plastic companies stated there were no known health risks associated with cooking with cling wrap, although they did warn that cooking in plastic bowls such as margarine tubs could cause a risk of burns, from melted, dripping plastic. Health and environmental sites present an opposing view, and warn about chemicals leaching into our food. Dioxins and DEHA are contained in most cling wraps, and can indeed “migrate” into food, particularly greasy and ... more.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
