Food grade silicone is a type of silicone that is safe for use with foods. Usually used frequently in making molds to use for food that begins as liquids and solidify.
Food grade silicone is non-toxic, does not stain food, dishes or cookware; it is easily removed from cast objects and is safe for use on various plastic objects.
Silicone-based rubber products are characterized by a number of key properties, including; High and low heat resistance, Chemical Resistance, High Compressibility, High Elasticity, and Water Repellency.
Uses
Food grade silicone is often used to make molds of nonfood items for later use as molds to cast food items into the shape of the initial nonfood item. The molds are used for making shapes out of chocolates, butter, gelatin, cheese, and candies.
Food grade silicone is also used in food processing and packaging to keep foods from coming into contact with unsanitary surfaces while being transported across assembly lines. Hunters and butchers use lubricant food grade silicone to prevent rusting in grinding and cutting machines because it is safe for consumption.

Food Safety
The FDA (Food & Drug Administration) is responsible for the regulation of the food and pharmaceutical industries, in order to protect the public from food and drug hazards. Although the FDA is a body of the US government, and its jurisdiction only applies in the United States, its principles and regulations are adopted as a recognizable worldwide standard.
Silicone’s resistance to temperatures and chemicals ultimately means that it does not react with foodstuffs or any other media encountered in the process line. The use of silicone sealing, therefore, does not result in any hazardous byproducts which could adversely affect the health of the workforce or end consumers. This is important when considering silicone as a ‘food-safe’ material.
Stop to use plastic from now on.
