1. Is it okay to eat with a stainless steel bowl?

In fact, as long as the quality of many tableware is good and not inferior products, there is no problem using them in daily life and they will not cause harm to the human body. The same goes for stainless steel bowls. The key is how to choose a stainless steel bowl of good quality.

Generally speaking, stainless steel tableware is often marked with three codes: "13-0", "18-0" and "18-8". The number in front of the code represents the chromium content, and the number behind it represents the nickel content. The higher the nickel content, the better the quality. For example, "13-0" means it contains 13% chromium and no nickel. Code fonts should be printed on finished stainless steel tableware. If no similar code is printed, it is a counterfeit bowl and should not be used as tableware.

2. Can babies use stainless steel bowls?

Stainless steel bowls are highly corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, will not deform or deteriorate when exposed to heat, and will not break even if they fall to the ground. Many stainless steel bowls have a vacuum layer, which makes the surface neither cold nor hot, and also has a heat-insulating effect. Stainless steel bowls are relatively safe.
