I've only used it on the wood grates at the bottom so it is never near food. Here has never been an order. So I could only guess how close to a food prep area was safe. I don't think this is much help but wit is how I've used it

I've worried about that myself. However, I haven't noticed anything. I think the trick is being sure you allow it to completely cure before using it.

After each use you are supposed to clean it inside and outside with hot soap, lysol and bleach. There could be deadly virus and bacterias that are salt tolerant waiting to pounce on the unsuspecting victim

this product is an all natural animal casing ...other than a cleaning and curing (salt / brine) process ....it is then packaged for sale. to my knowledge no contact with wheat or gluten would seem likely

It is not food grade and therefore not purified for consumption as food grade would be. Don't eat it. However, if somebody were to accidentally eat some, it probably wouldn't harm them.

i would advise you not to eat any unsealed food products !!!!!! return them as damaged goods and ask for new shipment .

The label reads "For External Use Only". It is possible the inactive ingredients may be toxic. Unless you get the full ingredient list and are a pharmacist or chemist with a medical or veterinary background I would not put this in your mouth.

I put the whole thing in dishwasher on top rack every time I use it. I want to know it is sanitized after piercing raw meat. It works great!

I don't think it causes any problems. I've been using it from Amazon for over 2 yrs. I refrigerate it once I receive it, but I don't know where it's been before that. I feel it would be the same case with the health food stores. They may refrigerate it, but who knows what goes on before it gets to them. This is from Barlean's site - "Either high heat (over 300 degrees F) or sustained heat over a very long period of time can degrade Omega-3 oils. The relatively short transit times and variable seasonal temperatures encountered during transit have been found to be insignificant when tested extensively. Even shipments arriving in summer heat waves can be assured as being potent and undamaged." I don't think it causes any problems. I've been using it from Amazon for over 2 yrs.

I cannot answer from experience, but I will say that I would give it a try as I have not had any problems with anything I have cooked in them. To be on the safe side, I would give them a quick spray of Pam or other nonstick spray and give it a shot!

You could put a piece of tape across the hole on the outside. For something more permanent, you could probably use sugru, but right now sugru is not considered food safe.

Hello, I do not think so, its probably should not be used on something used for food.

As long as there is no grease or oil residue it's OK. For instance, steamed broccoli should be fine.

Personally I would not do it. I don't think it is good safe & judging by the smell I got while it cured on my exhaust flange I would not want to eat anything that was near it.

I would not recommend use with food as it seems to not be sterile. It was received wrapped and taped in bubble wrap.
