I could classify food as narcotic substance. It's addictive for me, I've felt withdrawal symptoms very clearly and I really felt like a junkie on hunger when I dropped too much weight too fast. There is BIG a difference between &q

My Tefal kettle is 10 yr old now and I have really hard water. Looks like Tefal still maintains some quality, I've bought a sandwich maker 3yr ago and it still works perfectly, their pans are still top-notch.
