It was really important to highlight this fact that using PTFE(polytetrafluoroethylene)/Teflon is totally “safe” also any cookware which is labeled as non-sticky surely contain these elements. I would like you to not get confused with the non-sticky cookware labeled as diamond, stone, titanium blah! blah! Because that cookware is not a real non-sticky item and all non-stick cookware’s consist of PTFE/Teflon in some amounts. There has been the research of 50 years to determine that the use of Teflon cookware is safe or not and it has been declared many at times that it is safe to use Teflon cookware, instead it will reduce your oil intake as the amount of oil used for cooking reduces in this cookware. Non-Sticky Cookware has a small life? Polytetrafluoroethylene is a soft material which used to peel off easily if scratched by any hard material which definitely was a week point for PTFE cookware. Now, in the year 2019, the process by which PTFE/Teflon cookware is made is quite advanced and various reinforcing agents are utilized while preparing this cookware which not only last long but many companies now give a lifetime guarantee on their non-stick cookware which may not be 100% true but still it means the average life of 10 years. Does PFOA exist in all kind of Non-Sticky cookware? This myth is totally incorrect and the fact is totally opposite, most of the non-stick cookware is Perfluorooctanoic Acid-Free and when this cookware is cured at extremely high temperature there are no chances that PFOA can even survive. So, there are no chances of PFOA to exist in your non-stick cookware. Scratched Non-Sticky cookware is of no use! A small scratch in your non-stick pan may spoil the look of your product but initially, it doesn’t impact the use of utensils, also the bottom surface of a non-stick pan is made by the more inert process and unless that surface gets affected nothing can happen to your awesome dish prepared in your non-stick cookware. Storing of food in Non-Sticky cookware is not good? There is no such thing that exists in the world, people have been storing their food in these pans and there never been a case where storing of food in non-stick cookware has caused any kind of issue to anyone.
Yes, the only thing that can be of concern is that you might not have a refrigerator in your home which is next to impossible these days. So you can easily store your food in pans and put them in the refrigerator and eat it on time! All non-stick pans are black in color? It's not at all necessary for non-stick cookware to be black in color there are reasons for keeping the surface as black, the element used to prepare the non-stick pans are mostly organic and no heavy metals are allowed which promotes its black color One more reason to use dark color surfaces is staining from different food products and using a dark color surface helps to easily observe these stains and cleaning of these pans become easier. All Non-sticky pans are of the same quality? I don’t think that many people will believe this myth as we already see a cost difference between pans offered by different companies. Why is it so? The reason is quite clear the better the quality of non-stick pans will be the more will be the brand loyalty and trust in these brands. The material used in creating this cookware must be from a trusted source and should be of good quality so that the user of this non-sticky cookware doesn’t have to worry about. Non-Sticky pans of lightweight are of good quality? In case of weight it works differently as to what we think, the heavier the pan or any other non-stick cookware will be the better are the chances of that pan to fall in quality cookware list. The weight increase as the coating quality on the product increases and hence the heavier cookware will deliver more as compared to some lighter non-sticky cookware. Heating Non-Sticky cookware for too long can damage it? Come on no one should be trusting this myth, I mean how can heat effect cookware which is supposed to be heated. Let me make it clear that heating of pan will never ever affect your pan. Using of Metal Utensils will have no effect on Non-Sticky pan
