ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS

 

 

 Glad you asked, guys!

Here we have Corning WareÔ and two alternative products: Pyrex and an aluminum pan

  

 

Cost at K-mart:

Corning WareÔ $ 8.99

Pyrex $ 4.49

Aluminum Pan came from Grandma’s cabinet

 

For this comparison we used a non-coated aluminum loaf pan, which we couldn’t find in the stores. A Teflon-coated loaf pan cost $4.99 at K-mart.

 

 

So what is the difference between these?

 

To answer that, we have compiled some comparative property information:

Also, we conducted some of our own kitchen testing.

 This tastes good!
