I’m no chemist, but I’m not so sure about that. Certainly some plastics are organic, and silicon is not organic, but silicone is sometimes created by pairing silicon chains with organic molecules to create compounds that are polymeric, which seems to be the definition of plastic according to the IUPAC.
Either way, to me is seems like plastic which just makes me uncomfortable using it in actual cooking. The more I learn about plastics, the less I like using them even for food storage.
