Love your video on lead in cast iron. Particularly your thinking cap. You taught me some facts about cast-iron and it’s uses I did not know. I have been using cast iron utensils for 60 years. Nice to know that it is safe after all these years.

  Thank you, Marilyn. 60 years – you’re smarter than most folks! A lot of people gave up on cast iron thanks to the space-age promises of Teflon.

I tried Teflon when it was new. Sounds like a god idea especially if you like eating the teflon coating. The pans don’t last like cast iron or good stainless steel. Neither will hurt you.
