Yea, non-stick cookware has some tremendously bad stuff in it. Carbon steel or cast iron, properly seasoned and using correct cooking technique will be very non-stick. Stainless won't season like the other two, but kept clean, scratch-free, and using good cooking technique (cold oil into a hot pan, let the oil come to temperature, then add the protein) you can cook even eggs with little to no sticking.

My wife's mother never had non stick cookware. So my wife has never wanted the stuff.
Been married to her for 40 years, guess we were ahead of the curb back then
SS and cast iron are her choices, no aluminum either

Maybe instead of worrying about pfos (and its relatives) in cookware they should be more concerned with the levels in municipal drinking water and the sources that made those levels high.

Been saying this for a year. They won’t talk about it because they can’t stop it from coming to your house.
They have banned many waterproof clothing in NYS already. PFAS is used as a waterproofing agent.

They absolutely can remove it from drinking water. Activated carbon will take out most of the PFOS but its expensive and slow. Some places have it. Depending on the source of the water muni supply can be pretty simple, most just use a sand bed and chlorination. It can be way more complex if its more nasty coming in floc, coag, UV, pH control, etc.

We have several ceramic coated non-stick pans, they work fine. Just a pinch of bacon grease for the fried eggs. High temps, no problem. "Teflon", the original non-stick pan breaks down under high heat and in time comes off the pan. We removed it from our kitchen long ago. We're also fans of stainless steel and cast iron.

Brass, copper and lead for me. Maybe some tungsten, a little depleted uranium when I can get it. Steel only if SHTF. Some gold, silver and platinum in the right stashes. These are a few of my favorite things. Let me cook, bro. :beer:

It would be the other way around for me. I`d take my wife right back to her mothers and leave her there because that`s where she came from! But after being together for over 50+ years, ain`t nobody gonna want either one of us, lol.

That’s what I meant. It’s not really practical or cost effective. I’m not sure a carbon filter on an inline system like that would allow for pressure and flow needed to supply us all. They would need to install a massive holding tank and the amount of carbon needed would be immense. I’m going to install a whole house water system at my house soon.

I think any such regulation is stupid and contrary to individual liberty, just publish the data and let people decide for themselves.
That said there is no non-stick coating that works as well as a properly seasoned iron skillet. My skillet is so well seasoned that even burned cheese slids right off with a brush. A seasoned cooking surface is also not subject to scrapes and scratches and even if they were would be easy to repair. Also the best seasoning method is also tge most delicious- just cook lots of bacon and the skillet will be seasoned properly in short order. Corned beef also works. Also cooking with butter instead of oil helps as well, in addition to being healthier.

I don't give a shit one way or the other. As long as dinner is on the table when I get home.

Hell, Im 71 YOA, I figure Im about 20 years past my expiration date. If I live another 5 minutes or another 30 years, I'm not going to worry about this shit. Now, where is my Buffalo Trace and a Kuba-Kuba. I have a feeling my 'check liver' light may be flashing, soon.

My wife an i were raised on farms, that`s all the elders cooked with was cast iron. We still only cook with cast iron to this very day in our house. As a matter of fact, i cooked Gianelli sausage, peppers an onions, outside tonight in cast iron over our outdoor camp chef dual propane cooker.

Oh sh!t, now the qween is going to send her warriors out after me to sue`e`side me for using propane gas!

FKH ......................... OINK!

Home filtration is not really that expensive to get into but maintenance costs are pricey. I have private water and use a greensand with AC after that, its probably $300 a year to keep the system going, but I do have bottled water quality from the tap.
