If you're buying any cookware...

I wouldnt even worry about teflon. Think off all the other crap in food we eat -pesticides, gm plants(gm animals soon too , looks like), all kinds of nasty perservatives, hormones, food dyes, mercury , pcbs. Cracks me up in the grocery store seeing the milf in line in front of me spending all this dough on Organic and Natural food, then soon as she gets out the store.. lights up a cig.

teflon is fine as long as you dont over heat it. This is just my humble observations as someone who works with heat in the thousands of degrees as opposed to hundreds of degrees. When you get it up to about 1500 it actually melts like butter. . Thats when its bad because it starts to de-gas, but to cook with it, you should be fine..
