The warnings have confused some consumers about the safety of food con­ tainers. The FDA has tried to remedy the problem by com­ piling the following information on toxicity of dinnerware. Toxicity results most often from heavy metals in decals and glazes on pottery and china in all price ranges. Under normal use, no health hazard is present. But when acidic foods (carbonated beverages; fruit juice, cooked fruits and other fruit products; tomatoes; cider; sauerkraut and other foods containing vinegar; wines) are stored in din­ nerware, leaching of heavy metals (cadmium, lead) may occur. Storage time, use frequency, temperature and location of decals affect the degree of toxicity produced. Decals on the inside of a bowl in contact with foods are potentially much more dangerous than are border decals on "flat din­ nerware Toxic chemicals are natural in the environment, but the body naturally eliminates most of these. The body, however. cannot handle excessive amounts of some toxins. Lead is one of these. Old pewter vessels cohtain high percentage of lead and should not be used as food and beverage containers. Modern pewterware, containing much less lead, meets government standards. , In a few cases silver plated holloware has contained leachable lead levels much higher than the maximum FDA levels. FDA routinely samples holloware to ensure consumer safety. Enamelware with bright red or orange inside surfaces leach cadmium. These items are rarely produced today and enamelware generally is safe.
