[chromo]

I saw a picture of a great looking coffee cup that was Powder coated. Looked like maybe a ceramic cup. Is normal powder and extreme chrome and lolly etc.. safe for food items like Cups, Glasses which would be just the outside?
What about plates or silverware like forks, spoons, and butter knifes?

I think I saw some FDA powders somewhere for food type use, but is that more for the cooking utensils like pots and metal spatulas spoons etc..?
I also know of course that just like OSHA, EPA etc.. the FDA can be nuts with requirements, is it that most powders are safe but only a few are tested and approved by FDA?

I had a couple ideas and want to be safe about it! I can often get plain white or off white ceramic cups and plates cheap.
