The makers of America's nonstick cookware are none too pleased about a new law that will bar them from using carcinogenic "forever chemicals."

    Just use cast iron and stainless steel. I don’t own anything else.

        And enamel cookware. It’s lasting forever.

          I got some Belgium made enamel cast iron. It’s fantastic.

          What is the enamel? Same as ceramic? I’ve got ceramic pans that now stick like crazy and I went back to steel

            “Ceramic” is just different proprietary PFAS chemicals that are not Teflon and so haven’t been proven to cause cancer (yet).

            Enamel is a baked on paint like you’d put on pottery. Kind of glassy.

              Do you have a reference for that bit about ceramic coating? My understanding was that enamel was a glass coating, and ceramic was a, well, ceramic coating.
