Do these stain if used to cook items with tomato sauce? Is there a way to stain proof?

I haven't had a problem with staining but haven't used it to store or cook anything with tomato in it. It washed great in the dishwasher!

I am not sure what this question means the way it is phrased, if the question is if you can bake non-stick items or dark colored food items in these, the best way to cook either of these things is spray a little cooking spray on bake ware before cooking; it will make cleaning easy and more than likely will help prevent staining.

I don't think they are made of stain resistant plastic. If I put something in the bowl that may leave a stain, I will put a small amount of dishwashing liquid and water in the bowl, wash it out a little to remove the stain before I place it in the dishwasher. This process is a little extra work, but, it really works well.

I'm surprised to hear yours stains. We've cooked everything in ours and it has absolutely no staining or apparent wear. Maybe you got a defective item?

I've not had any permanent stains. They come off with hot water / soap or in the dishwasher.

No staining. I don't have a dishwasher but I think they would work. They stack but take up more space than most bowls. I got orange ones. Wish they offered mixed color sets.

They are a hard plastic. You could not stain them. You may be able to paint them if you sand them to get the paint to stick.

I am sure they can stain just like any other cotton fabric. So far, using them as dish towels I haven't had that problem.

Staining is mininmal and easily removed. I have stored spagetthi sauce without any problem. Some have said that a light spray with cooking oil will minimize staining but I haven't tried it myself.

I got these for Christmas and mine stained right away on the second use cooking some frozen fish. Has anyone successfully gotten the stains out I tried the soap and water per instructions but that did not seem to help.

I have a similar pot that discolors occasionally. I wipe the inside of the pot with white vinegar, full strength, and then wash normally and the staining disappears.

No, they're excluded in the little manual that comes with the set. Having used the deep pan with tomato sauce a number of times already, I don't see how it would be possible to stain the white ceramic inside the pans; as for scratches, I try not to use metal utensils with these pans.

I don't know because I have not done this, but they are tempered glass so you should be able to. I use these containers for food storage as I am trying to get away from plastic containers. I have been very happy with these. Food does not stain the lids.

Hi Lindsey. I did mine and they look great. My father in law spilt salsa on mine and it sat overnight before I saw it. I used a cotton cloth and a gentle laundry stain remover and it came right off. I was surprised as I figured the red tomato juice would sink in and still be seen. Just be careful to rub gently and in multiple directions so you don't ruin the material texture. It is like grain sack but thin. I love mine for the price

Staining was a non-issue for me. They dry quickly on a paper towel and there were no blue stains on my fingers when I held it to rinse under the water. And what I set on top of it to keep it flat did not stain either.
