Ziploc Omelette - maybe not a good idea

From Motorhome Magazine

"Last month we suggested you try a Ziploc Omelette, a recipe sent to us by a reader. In response to the recipe, we have received several warnings that the process could prove harmful, with the following official memo from the company, SC Johnson: "We do not recommend using any Ziploc brand bag in boiling water, or to "boil" in the microwave. Ziploc brand bags are made from polyethylene plastic with a softening point of approximately 195 degrees F. By pouring near-boiling water (water begins to boil at 212 degrees F) into the bag, or putting the bag into the water, the plastic could begin to melt."
