It appears melmac is microwave safe and melamine isn't. What is the difference and how do I know which I have?

Melamine is the type of plastic resin and Melmac is a brand name. They are the same product. It's like saying Tissue vs. Kleenex. Most tissues are about the same (well, the were before they started adding lotions, aloe, etc). Kleenex is a brand name of tissue just as Melmac is a brand name of melamine. So..they are the same and I wouldn't put either of them in the microwave or fill up a bowl or cup with anything boiling hot. Also, they don't fare well in the dishwasher. Too bad, because they can make such pretty patterns and shapes with the stuff...but they aren't practical if you want to microwave and use your dishwasher often!
