The product, in the report: Meat thermometer
See attached typewritten statement. I had an e-mail/password problem with my attempt to make an on-line report.
Page 1-B
The glass window of our Polder oven thermometer shattered in the oven while we were cooking a pork tenderloin. [REDACTED] detected a tiny shard while eating her meat after we began our dinner. We then discovered more tiny shards in the meat on our plates. We then returned to the kitchen and discovered tiny shards in the remaining meat on the cutting board, and larger shards next to the thermometer (which had been removed from the meat with a pot holder and set aside), and more larger shards on the oven bottom itself. All the meat was immediately thrown out, and the entire area cleaned thoroughly. Two pictures are attached. To date, we have not experienced any adverse health effects from possibly unknowingly swallowing any glass. [REDACTED] had noted before inserting the thermometer in the meat what could have been some minor condensation inside the thermometer’s glass window. However, the thermometer had not been used for some time, and the rubber seal around the window appeared to be intact and impregnable.
