    That would be my suggestion. Don't know what is in the Cascade but it seems to eat anything away. In fact, it doesn't even have to be Cascade. I use the Cascade gel packs for my dishwasher. I have a box of powered dishwasher stuff but not Cascade. It's Kirkland's, which is a COSCO's brand. I don't like to use it in the dishwasher. I kept it to use when I have something stuck to the pan.

    Ouch - I feel for you. :( I'm always doing goofy stuff like this.

    I would use the dishwasher detergent soak. It gets anything clean. I hope it works on your pan.

    I just LOVE you guys! Knew many someones here would have great suggestions and I can't wait to try them. Just washed my hands in the kitchen sink where the pot is sitting and it broke my heart all over again.

    As I have Cascade, I'll start with that first ..... and a TIMER! Never doing anything ever again without a timer since it's obvious there was not only a disturbance in the pudding force, as Rebecca VLQ noted, but there seems to be a permanent disruption in the mental capacities as well.

    And Leatherflea, about using Coke.....well, I'm going to try it, but I'm NOT going there with any other comments as I am also a 55 year Coke addict out of the closet. I do not want to know!!

    Let's see, got to add baking soda (recently used up) to the grocery list, and amonia, and oven cleaner - huh, that might come in handy for the oven which itself desperately needs attention, more Mr. Clean erasers, Bar Keepers Friend-----

    Now I'm wondering whether it *would* be cheaper to buy a new pot?!

    Someone once told me that if I have something stuck to a pan I should soak a softener sheet (like Bounce) in it overnight. They said the next day, you just wash and rinse it and it should be good. I hope this works. I know what it's like to have your favorite cooking tools and utensils.

    I spray with oven cleaner, come back the next day and it wipes right off. No elbow grease needed.

    I was going to tell you to use the Cascade too! I made an apple pie and it boiled over and it was a sticky sticky mess! I but it in the sink, added the cascade with hot water and let it sit for a day or two.. and if finally came clean. It works great!

    I was going to say try Cascade too. I had made an apple pie and had lots of apples and sugar in the pie pan. It boiled over when it was in the oven, what a sticky, sticky mess!
    I put it in the sink and added the Cascade and hot water and let it soak a day or two.. and it came clean.

    Did you get your pan clean yet?
