Psyched in Stilettos

Is your cheap Made In China kitchenware releasing toxic fumes when overheated? It’s something we don’t often think about, but many of those ‘non-stick pans’ we just love to make frittatas in are actually coated with nasty chemicals, which gradually escape into our food… and our tummies. If you’d like to try an environmentally mindful cookware range, the team at EarthPan™ Plus have found an ingenious way to deliver a healthy non-stick solution. They use sand – a substance that’s been used for glass, plaster and concrete since 3000BC – in their SandFlow™ non-stick technology, which means you won’t be exposed to polytetrafluoroethylene (PFTE) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) when using their pots and pans.
You can heat them 25% hotter than other non-stick pans, and yet studies show they will last three times longer than other ‘green’ ceramic based cookware. Plus, the company environmentally friendly in other ways: manufacturing EarthPans doesn’t require enormous amounts of greenhouse gases, and their packaging materials are minimal and 100% recyclable.

Thanks for the info about the cookware. I've been trying to find safer cookware in particular non stick pans. These sound great and at least they are far more healthier for the environment thus for us than the ones most other brands offer. I do have some cast iron ones which are fantastic for cooking most things. The non-stick ones are good for eggs and the odd indulge in pancakes! They are available from Harris Scarfe and they happen to be 40% off on sale which ends today. Even at full price I think they are well priced. Good cast iron is way more expensive and very, very heavy. Thanks again.
