Green Eggs and Pan
Date: November 6, 2008 | Category: Kitchen, The Home
Hate to ruin your appetite, but unfortunately for all of us, the non-stick cookware that made your eggs slide so easily onto your plate likely contained PTFE, which is toxic at high temperatures. And PFOA, a chemical involved in non-stick production, has been deemed “likely carcinogenic” by the EPA.
Enter Green Pan, a Belgium-based company that has developed a line of cookware that’s PTFE-Free and PFOA-Free in manufacturing. As a plus, the company is able to forge the pans using half the energy required to produce a pan with a PTFE coating. Coining the term “constainable,” they are developing products that blend convenience with sustainability.
Rejoice, eggs are back on the table!
