Pyrex Glass Bakeware
*Solid build *Glass is great *Withstands high heat *Available everywhere
Glass Bakeware has been made in the USA since 1915. With Pyrex you avoid stains and odor, and also you avoid leeching of PBAs or other petroleum chemicals upon heating. Pyrex metal bakeware is made overseas. Here is a great food storage set including six vessels and their corresponding lids, for a reasonable $41.50… 5-star reviews:

I would like to add that we LOVE the pyrex baking dishes, especially the pie dishes, but we just noticed that Pyrex has released a NEW pie dish that is perfectly circular which will fit easier within a pie cover.
