Adding new ceramic  bowls for the family is supposed to increase the celebration and imply the prosperity of the population, but sometimes, because the homework was not done in advance, the bowls were not selected properly, which added a lot of trouble.

Fortunately, with the development of the Internet, people have share the bowls that are not suitable to use and have potential safety hazards in advance,which can  avoid more people stepping on the same pit. 

In this issue, we would like to  share 4 kinds of  ceramic bowls that is unhealthy or umwelcome during using with you. If you meet them, please take a detour.  Money buys lessons!

1. Do not buy a on-glazed ceramic bowls

When you plan to purchasing the ceramic bowl, you are supposed to  pay more  attention to distinguish whether it is an on-glaze color, an in-glaze color or an underglaze color.Please don't buy the on-glazed ceramic bow Different type of glazeed craft  correspond to different positions of the painted pigments, and the safety is totally very different.

Generally speaking, in-glaze color and under-glaze color are pigments that protect the lower layer of the glaze surface. In layman's terms, the pattern is printed first and then glazed, which has a higher degree of safety.

Moreover, the surface of these two types of bowls is bright and soft, with a feeling of crystal clearness, not easy to wear, and never fades. It is recommended that you give priority to these two types when choosing.

On-glaze coloring means that the pigment is on the upper layer of the glaze surface. The process is to glaze first and then print the pattern. Because most of the pattern pigments contain heavy metals, and the surface is not protected by the glaze. Long-term exposure to high-temperature food will inevitably lead to the precipitation of heavy metals. Safety relatively low.

Furthermore, the surface of this bowl has poor brightness, and it is easy to wear and change color after long-term use.

So how to tell whether you are buying an overglaze color or an underglaze color?

Generally speaking, the easiest way is to touch it with your hands. The uneven surface is the overglaze color. It is not recommended to choose it. The smooth and delicate surface is the underglaze color. Choose it.If you really can't tell the difference, just buy an all-white porcelain bowl, which is simple and safe.


2. Do not buy special-shaped ceramic bowls.

To be honest, the special-shaped bowls are really good-looking.Will you couldn’t hold back and bought some special shaped bowls  in the live broadcast room, but after buying them back and using them, you always regretted it. 

Apart from the beautiful presentation, there are really no advantages to talk about.

For example, this Japanese-style ramen bowl has handles with holes on both sides, which is convenient for serving hot rice without burning your hands. It looks reasonable and thoughtful.

But in fact, the shape of the cone is very strange. It looks very big, but the capacity is very small. The holes on both sides are much lower than the edge of the bowl. The soup and rice will spill out if you are not careful.The actual capacity is similar to that of a small bowl, but it is placed in the cabinet. But it occupies the space of a large bowl, which is very tasteless.


3. Do not buy ceramic bowls without bowl base holders.

The ceramic bowl with small holder or without holder at the bottom,although it looks light and beautiful, but it is really hard to use.

First of all, there is no bowl holder, and the heat insulation of the bottom of the porcelain bowl is very poor. After adding hot soup and rice, it is too hot to hold.

Secondly, when washing the bowl, it is very easy to slip and fall down, which will adding the breaking risk.What's more, when storing, the bowls are easy to get stuck when they are stacked together, and it is not easy to separate them.The only advantage is that it is easy to wash in the dishwasher, and the bottom of the bowl is not easy to accumulate water, but compared to these disadvantages, I personally think this advantage is not very prominent.


4. Do not buy ceramic bowls with gold thread and silver edges.

There are a lot of this kind of bowls on the Internet. It looks high-end and the price is not expensive, so it has won the love of many people.

But I really don’t recommend buying it. Whether it’s a gold thread or a silver edge, it’s easy to fall off after a long time, especially if you can’t put it in the dishwasher, it will wear out faster.

Moreover, it cannot be put into the microwave oven, as it is made of metal, and once heated in the microwave oven, it will crackle and emit sparks, which is very dangerous.
