Teflon: Why I think it might be harmful to your health and an alternative to Teflon

If you want to cook healthy you want to cook with less oil. For that & for re-heating food, a non-stick pan is a lot easier than a regular steel pan.

There is only one problem, if you're using Teflon. Teflon is considered "safe" but allow me to swim upstream. I learnt many years ago, when my friend's bird died, that Teflon is toxic to birds. I didn't know that earlier and it didn't make me feel so good. Hey, have you ever wondered where all the scraped off Teflon from an old pan went ?

So, though I am no scientist, I have found an alternative that makes me feel safer: Ceramics :)
These types of pans work great ! We love them! I feel they are more non-stick than Teflon.

Here are photos of some ceramic cookware I can now find. My own set has been packed and is in transit to India. This is the set I have.

My approach to health is all encompassing and potential toxins in my cookware are something I choose to avoid.
