Unless you heat teflon up to around 600 degrees F which makes your food
into smoking charcoal, it's about as inert to everything as anything gets.
You may as well worry about eating silica sand.
No more picnics at the beach, ya know.

Hi:
Does anybody know if being PFOA free makes this non-stick cookware safe to
use:

My wife wants me to evaluate it because it is inexpensive and we currently
have no non-stick cookware (use stainless steel with aluminum core instead).
I have researched it, but only come up with the fact that their process is
water based rather than POFA based, which is supposed to eliminate the
main problem with Teflon cookware. Because it is water based they call it
Hydrolon (clever, huh?). I assume the non-stick material is still a
fluorocarbon solid called PTFE,
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene) but I have not been
able to verify this (but what else would it be?). If so, that would still
be of concern as the material dispersed into your food over time, would it not?
