Both true and practical, but this is why we have so much trouble figuring
out where to put all of our trash. It *shouldn't* be that way.

Not a question of food safe, but one of practicality. They are not easily
seal with adhesives. You'll find that it is easier in the long run to
replace it. Honest.
Our under the counter light just burned out a bulb. I bought a new fixture.
Why? Bulb cost $5.96. Fixture cost (with new bulb) $6.96. The clear lens
on the old one was yellowed from a few years use and the new one is perfect.

Epoxy should be safe enough after it cures but for it to do any good, it
needs to get into the crack or you need to bond a patch to the outside.
It's that time of the year and for all the sales going on, you could
probably pick her up a brand new one and save yourself the grief...

If the reservoir is plastic, you can probably use acetone to glue it.
Acetone melts plastic. But, I think it is better to replace it. I
have a no-frills Mr. Coffee I paid $15 and it makes great coffee every
time, going on its 9th year of daily use.
