@ashly real Pyroceram can be used on a stovetop, a dishwasher is nothing compared to that, there's some Corningware that's glazed stoneware according to Wikipedia and only meant for baking. I'd still be surprised if it wasn't dishwasher safe

the small casserole dish I have is just straight up white pyrex, but clearly inspired by Corningware design

@ashly okay, I looked it up, I think I even have a piece of Pyroceram and it definitely dishwashes

@ashly not all plastics are created equal and it took quite some time to develop ones that hold up to microwaves and dishwashers

@ashly nowadays good plastic containers are ubiquitous but back then I think they actually had a superior product. My parents have some ancient Tupperware that still holds up

@ashly really depends on the area. Sounds like they never exclusively sold through parties (but they were their main retail channel). For instance, in the UK they stopped parties altogether in 2003 news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/2

if it says "Tupperware" on there it's the real deal afaik, the ones I know have pretty prominent branding

@ashly ppl tend to give it a pass because the product is actually useful

@ashly it's not only that but also technically an MLM

re: Snacks, DE for some reason. 

@ashly there's a Dutch word, "lekker" which isn't quite the same, it means "delicious" (like the German one) as well as "nice" and "comfortable"

re: Snacks, DE for some reason. 

@ashly lecker!

@codl uhhh are you familiar with the deltarune "weird route"

@Natanox ich hatte bis jetzt ganz gute Erfahrungen mit Aisler gemacht

@verity for soup purposes I really like my stick blender

@codl for you maybe. I'm sure there's some lifeform that can see 2.4 GHz
