[quote=shadoh]thanks, didn't know that, so out with the fry pan too?
Any teflon pan that has any chipping or pealing should be discarded. Teflon is extremely toxic and is a known cancer causing subtance if ingested. It is fine if the teflon surface is completely intact. Just an FYI , I love the non - stick nature but every year I purchase a new one and toss the old. I am frugal but the testing on this substance is very conculsive. It is one of the substances that can be HIGHLY toxic if ingested.
