My 1.75QT - 1.65L Pyrex cookware is made in the USA. >Your original claim is that they are "likely." This is wrong. ^Please^ carefully re-read my comments, no where did I profess; "likely." < Are you confusing the video content with me? >The platen glass is doped with a microwave absorbance metal to provide some protection to the magnetron. ^ IS correct ^, the fact that you; not believe your claim is true because "microwave absorbance metal" means the glass will heat up faster < Simply means you do not know, run you microwave empty for 60sec (NOT recomended) feel the platen, it is hotter than ambient temperature, microwave energy has been absorbed across the large surface area. |

Your original text contained this line: "The above is why Pyrex cookware is likely to crack and split in microwave cooking". I've emphasized where you wrote "likely", which you can verify at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36839086 .
Your Pyrex cookware is NOT likely to crack in split in microwave cooking, as I earlier stated at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36839452 .
> it is hotter than ambient temperature, microwave energy has been absorbed across the large surface area.
Sure. Agreed. That's why I wrote "the glass will heat up faster than otherwise" with emphasis added to show how I know the glass will heat up no matter its composition.
Put your 1.75QT - 1.65L Pyrex cookware in the microwave, by itself, and it will also heat up. That's not a sign that there is some special additive.
You think the glass turntable contains a metal additive which absorbs energy. This means it will get hotter than glass without the additive. Where is your evidence that it is designed this way?
