And with cast iron, you are cooking in random organic polymers and eating them. The patina of cast iron pans is random organic chemicals.
- lupinglade 6y agoI've not seen our cast iron or carbon steel pans flaking off into food like I have seen with Teflon. I doubt there is much of anything harmful coming off during cooking -- not any more harmful than the cooked food itself likely.
