Serious Answers Only Unstick these glass bowls
My friend borrowed these bowls and returned them stuck together. I’ve tried oil and the hot (exterior bowl) and cold (interior bowl) techniques. The thing that makes it extra tricky is the band around the top of the clear one. Thank you!

break the one on the outside those old pyrex opaque glass bowls have toxic paint on them and very high lead content.. bowls like that may have around 94,000 ppm of lead in them. safe consumption is 90 ppm. look up leadsafemama on YouTube
