Thanks for so many good educated guesses. I do not think the liquid is
water because there is a caution note of the scoop --> "Do not place in
boiling water or subject to heat in excess of 140 F." Must be a liquid 
whose pressure near 140 F changes with temperature much faster than
water (a danger of an explosion, I suppose).
===========================================
Speaking from experience, I can tell you that they don't explode, but when
you put one in the dishwasher by accident, all of the fluid mysteriously
disappears==probably escapes thru,  well, gee, I don't know.    These are
not new inventions, we have had one for minny, minny years ( for most of
them without its liquid.)  If you are going to purchase one, get the metal
kind.  the plastic ones do not work nearly as well.     M.J. Clarke.
