We have a new website we are putting up at www.Mencook2.com. It launches Sept. 1. The reason I am saying this is that we are selling extremely high quality cookware but are interested in finding out what people prefer. Personally I think copper looks great and heats great but is not as good (health reasons) as something like tri ply material. I do not like Teflon and only think aluminum is good in the middle (tri ply). Is my view warped or realistic?
Any comments would help immensely.
Thanks so much ahead of time for all responses.
The site again is www.mencook2.com. We have some products listed. The cookware sets is what I am interested in. Specifically the Gourmet Standard cookware.
Hey men cook too, but I want all opinions!

OK, so I know that stainless heats unevenly, cast iron traps old food junk in it, teflon coating is dangerous if it flakes or overheats, and aluminum transfers taste and something into food.
Soooo… I’ve seen that some fancy pans coat their cast iron or aluminum (better heat conduction) with a layer of stainless steel for the cleanliness steel provides. Just wondering what brands people are using that they are having success with – I know the better pans cost more, but health should be worth it!
Also, anyone know of any up/downsides to using a pan coated in tin?
Thanks!

I would like to buy the most quality and HEALTHIEST pots, pans & bakeware (price is not an issue.) I have heard that some deteriorate as you cook with time and can cause health hazzards (cancer)…such as non-stick brands (Teflon) or even aluminum. Can you recommend what type of material (examples: stainless steel, copper, cast iron, etc.) is the best for your health to cook with and maybe even some brand names??? I greatly appreciate it!

I know the dangers of teflon for human health. So I am wondering if anyone can recommend an alternative option for saucepan?
and if you can provide the brand name it’s even better
