P65 Warning on a Llanera

Hello! I recently purchased a Llanera for steaming food, but I noticed it has a P65 warning label after the purchase. Can someone explain what this means? Is it safe to use for steaming my food? Thanks!

    The Proposition 65 (P65) warning indicates that the product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. This warning is required on products that may expose consumers to these substances in significant amounts.

    In the case of a Llanera (a type of mold or tray often used for steaming), the P65 warning may be related to materials or coatings used in the product, such as certain metals or plastics that could release harmful substances at high temperatures.

    When it comes to safety, here are a few guidelines:

    1. Use as Intended: If you’re using the Llanera for steaming food and the product is labeled as food-safe, it should be generally safe for that purpose. However, it’s essential to ensure that the Llanera is intended for high-heat cooking.

    2. Research and Reviews: Look up the specific brand or material of the Llanera to see if there are any consumer reviews or additional data regarding its safety for cooking applications.

    3. Follow Cooking Guidelines: Ensure you’re following proper cooking guidelines and avoiding any overheating, which might increase the risk of harmful substances leaching into your food.

    4. Consider Alternatives: If you’re concerned about the P65 warning, you might want to look for products that do not have such warnings or are specifically labeled as free from harmful chemicals.

    If you have any lingering concerns, you might want to consult with health professionals or consider returning the product for something with a safer designation.
