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!

TEFLON?
I know it sounds stupid, but I’m curious. We have teflon (non-stick) pans/pots that are pretty old. The teflon is scratched and chipped all over. We currently don’t have the $$$ to buy better quality pans/pots as replacements.
Some of the cookware is in such poor shape that when I cook, the teflon coating comes off in pieces, and gets cooked into the food. They are too small to pick out, so we just eat the food with the little teflon bits in it.
Is this bad for you? Are there any long term effects from digesting teflon? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx.

I burned a teflon pan not to the point of seeing smoke but where it was hot enough to boil the water to nothing and a small amout of residue (white) was left!!!! and a strange smell coming from the pan? Is the 15 dangerous toxic chemicals that are emitted from the pan that I burnt enough to be concerned or did I have to see smoke to suggest the release of chemicals??
