True, and, especially with cold ingredients in it, the temperature difference
from inside to outside could very well be the cause of something like this.
Suppose it also comes down to that dishes like this one would have a form of
expected lifespan as well.
And, yes, will need to find a relatively similar replacement cooking
container/dish soon...<smile>

Jacob:
I'm not sure that the move is what weakened your favorite baking dish
such that it didn't hold together upon its next use. It is my understanding
that baking and casserole dishes made of some types of material are very
sensitive to sharp temperature contrasts. For example, if you take a baking
dish made of a certain material from a 200-degrees Celsius oven and set it down
on a cold metallic surface such as a trivet, the temperature contrast can cause
the dish to crack and split and break. I've heard this can also happen inside
the oven. I have a couple of casserole slash baking dishes which I don't use
very often, but so far, I have not experienced this problem. All I can say is
that if it was a favorite item that you enjoyed using and depended on, you'll
have to find a way to replace it. Jon

Not really relevant to anything specific, but, was thinking about it again
today - when we moved to new house in October last year, we used reusable
plastic packing cases, etc., and all went well, etc., but, the one thing that
didn't seem to appreciate the move was my favourite/standard oven ceramic
casserole dish, in that, the first time I tried to use it again, in the new
house, it literally cracked/split in half, and my guess would be that some or
other form of stress fracture it absorbed during move caused this, and, maybe,
during move, it would have been best to either make sure there were no other,
hard items packed with something like this, or else to just have packed it in a
form of padding/packaging, etc., but anyway?
