Did you know some dishes have metal trim?
I learned the hard way! We celebrated my son's birthday a little early before he had to go back to college. When everyone left, I found my son's plate with cookie cake left on it. I decided to heat it up and eat that last bit warm. We had eaten on our good plates that night and that is how I found out that these dishes must have some sort of metal trim on them. When I took the plate out of the microwave, it scorched my fingers, quickly leaving blisters. I had no idea but when I looked up on line about non-microwaveable dishes, there was mention of dishes with metal trim. Since these plates have a silver trim, I've decided it must be some sort of metallic trim.
