Incident narrative

SaferProducts.gov consumer incident report 20110927-9B060-2147474926. Matched catalog product: Anchor Hocking Anchor Hocking 1-cup Glass Measuring Cup. Source model text: Anchor Hocking 9.5 inch Premium Grip Glass Pie Plate 91512. Incident: I reported the first exploding pie plate to Anchor Hocking about three years ago. I was using the pie plate for the first time for Thanksgiving Dinner. After removing the pie from the oven and letting it cool on a wire rack, my sister was moving the pie plate to a table for serving. Before she could set it down, it exploded all over the table. Glass was everywhere, including in the mouths of my curious two 4 month old miniature poodles. Other than worrying about glass in the food, my main concern at that time was to let Anchor Hocking know that there was a problem in the hope that it wouldn't happen to others. Anchor Hocking kindly forwarded me a replacement pie plate and a set of very nice drinking glasses after that report. At that time I assumed that this explosion was a fluke or manufacturing flaw. I haven't thought much about it since.
