Title: I don't understand the complaints
Product review: Yes, they did seem dusty but you just rinse the pie weights and the box they come in and you're all set.America's Test Kitchen uses these pie weights, or something so similar I can't tell the difference, for pre-baked pie crusts. They suggest laying a piece of parchment paper in the bottom and then adding 2 cups, which is 2 containers, of pie weights. Bake the crust at 375 for 25 minutes, remove weights and parchment paper, and bake an additional 10-15 minutes. The addition of parchment paper keeps the weights from sticking to the crust and serves as a container to remove them.The box the weights came in is heavy plastic, as thick as the disposable food storage containers, so I don't think it's flimsy and it stays closed for me. I must say, the packaging they show for the product is totally different than what I received so maybe they have changed it and need to update their pictures.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
