Toss out your Teflon
After reading about DuPont being fined by the EPA for hiding cancer-causing risks associated with PFOA, an ingredient in the making of teflon pans, I tossed out my scratched up teflon frying pan. For a while now I've wondered where all that teflon that peeled off my pan wound up (in my body?). Anyway, I think the jury is still out on this stuff, but from what I've read, it sounds like when teflon gets to very high levels of heat, it off-gasses some bad stuff that isn't good for our homes or our health. For anyone who has ever fried an egg in one of these pans, I think you'd agree that teflon pans do indeed heat up to high temps (duh?). So, once you cross off teflon from your list, and aluminum too due to other risk, what's left? I have my trusty iron skillet that I want to be burried with, but for more variety, I found a cookware set by Emeril Lagasse. These stainless steel pots and pans are great! They clean-up nicely, and cook evenly. They are also designed for durability and style.
