FDA Comments on Melamine Tableware:
It has been found that melamine does not migrate from melamine-formaldehyde tableware into most foods. The only measured migration, in tests, was from some samples (three out of 19 commercially available plates and cups) into acidic foods, under exaggerated conditions (that is, the food was held in the tableware at 160 oF for two hours). When adjusted for actual-use conditions (cold orange juice held in the tableware for about 15 minutes), the migration would be less than 10 parts of melamine per billion parts of juice.
This is 250 times lower than the level of melamine (alone or even in combination with related compounds - analogues - known to increase its toxicity) that FDA has concluded is acceptable in foods other than infant formula (2,500 parts per billion); in other words, well below the risk level. In addition, such highly acidic foods make up only about 10% of the total diet, so the dietary level of melamine in these scenarios would be less than one part per billion.
However, when highly acidic foods are heated to extreme temperatures (e.g.,160 ° F or higher) . the amount of melamine that migrates out of the plastic can increase.Foods and drinks should not be heated on melamine-based dinnerware in microwave ovens. Only ceramic or other cookware which specifies that the cookware is microwave-safe should be used. The food may then be served on melamine-based tableware.

Reviews
I love my bowls!!
Great colors
Received this for a while now and decided to do a proper review. Overall I really like these mixing bowls because before I only had one mixing bowl and that made it really hard because it made the process of handling food take longer and harder to store food such as salad or marinate meat in the fridge . Ever since I got this mixing bowls it has cut my prep time in half and the bowls are also very durable which I really do like . Having bowls like these are very great and there not fragile at all the bowls are well built and are able to hold still while I use a electric mixer which is and extra plus. If you are looking for top of the art mixing bowls don't go any further because these are the right and best mixing bowls for you.I received this product in exchange of a fair, honest and unbiased review.
These are my new favorite bowls! First of all anyone who knows me, knows that I love color. I also like to have sets of matching items. These bowels meet both of those criteria. I also love the fact that they Are made of Melamine.
Melamine is an organic, nitrogen-rich industrial compound, created from one of three materials: urea, dicyandiamide or hydrogen cyanide. The hard and sturdy melamine resin is created by combining melamine with urea and formaldehyde. Melamine resin is fire and heat resistant, durable, and versatile. It is used in the manufacture of floor tiles, whiteboard and numerous kitchen items, including melamine dishes.
This makes for a very sturdy set of mixing/serving bowls. These would make a great housewarming gift.
I received this product at a discounted rate for my honest and unbiased review of it, however that does not mean. That my opinions are not 100% my own!
When I received these bowls I already loved them. My kitchen decor is fruits so I own a lot of brilliantly colored things to match. There are 3 bowls in this set. A red 4qt. (matches my apples and stawberries), a 3qt. which is yellow (matches my bananas), and a green 2qt. (Which matches apples, grapes, and pears). The bowls fit nestled into each other perfectly; this makes for great storage. When you receive these bowls please read instructions because they are not microwavable safe. However, they are top shelf dishwasher safe. They are made of a thick durable plastic. The outside has a kind of ribbed design and the inside are perfectly smooth. I really like that they have a rubber ring on the bottom to stop slippages when mixing. I really enjoy them and I would definitely recommend.
