I love Pampered Chef's stone bakeware. Nothing sticks to it. Mine has turned to a deep rich brown color. I was lucky to go to an yard sale of a PC consultant about ten years ago. She died and her son was selling everything in the house. She had a room full of brand new PC pieces. Nothing over $5! I asked the son if he was sure he knew what he was selling as she had Longaburger baskets too. He said yeah, a bunch of stuff to get rid of.
