|
|
I FOUND THE RECEIPT AND RETURNED IT TO COSTCO. I DISCOVERED THAT THE CROCK IS LACED WITH LEAD BASED FINISH.
I got this as a gift and I just don't cook enough to put it to use. It's a Rival 3040 slow cooker
It sells at costco for 45,000
Reselling 25,000
**It has been used 1 time.

We just bought a Chinese model for 35,000 new. It works pretty good!
I'd snatch this up if I hadn't bought the one we did.
We found a lot of ingredients in Itaewon at the International food stores. |

I contacted Rival about the glaze on their crockpots. They are lead free.
Here is the email I received from them.
I have just received your email and would like to thank you for writing. The glaze that we use on our products does not contain lead. It is made of silica flour, clay, feldspar, frit, and a few non-toxic minerals. These are ground up mixed, in specific quantities, with water. The resulting is slurry sprayed onto the pot and it is fired in the kiln at or around 1200-1600 degrees. If you need more information please contact us at 1(800)777-5452, 6am-3pm, MST, Monday through Friday.
Thank you,
Grace

That should put an end to all this nonsense. |

I have the rival from costco and I cook up a storm with it, make a big batch of somthing overnight and have easy meals for days.
Boulion base is a hard thing to find where I live, could someone give me directions to the international food stores in Itaewon? I never seem to get past the bars there.
Anything else on the lead issue? |
