[Answered] What would be a good glue to repair this spatula with that wont be toxic or come undone in a dishwasher?

I'm back on my BS 🤪@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 220 points –

Edit: I decided to throw it out and order a new stainless steel one that's all one piece. Thanks for the help!

Round up another $1.25 and head to dollar tree

This right here unfortunately, the glue will cost more if you only use the glue once. We live in a world where items are easier/cheaper to throw out then repair.

Though I guess the cheapest thing you could do is drill a hole on the backside with a drill and put a screw through it. Only a short screw that goes into the cylinder/shaft.

Also fyi, most plastics from the dollar store are not guaranteed to be toxic free. You may find most of these plastics melt on pans with use over time and might end up being consumed. Usually what I opt for is metal on a metal pan or silicon cooking utensils that don't seem to melt or loose peices of them in what I am cooking.

throw out then repair.

I think you have that backwards: try repairing and THEN throw it out.

Smash a tech screw in it, problem solved till the screw rusts.
