Scanpan is NOT ceramic but titanium. It only cost me 49.95 for a fry pan. There is no seasoning and it doesn't stick. Every ceramic pot I tried stuck even after seasoning. Anyway I want to take out the fry pan, put some butter in and cook an egg without any hassle or additional procedures/requirements. Save a couple of bucks on something cheaper but add your time in and end up spend a lot more. Thanks, Jim

On light weight automobile parts you can good deals on ebay. Just bought a door handle there. Save the $$$ difference on cookware ...spend it on premium organic bacon and eggs. You have yr priorities right. People obsess over buying the best, most expensive cookware = hardware When they should be buying better food which is equivalent to = software It's like spending big money on a treadmill. Just get out there and walk fast for a few miles. Do it with ankle weights even better fat burning There's a saying "Tools make the man". My reply is that a good man can work with tools that are second and third class. If he uses that tool all the time....then maybe go for the best. Same with your non-stick fry pan that is infrequently used. g
