Are containers made of polypropylene Microwaveable Safe? The container I have shows an icon with the number 5 within a triangle of arrows and the letters PP. It also states Microwave Reheatable.

@gollum,
It is generally safe to use plastics marked #5 polypropylene (PP) in the microwave. Type 5 polypropylene is most often labeled "microwave safe."

There's a fairly big clue right there.
