Im with braders, i couldnt personally care. If you read into everything thats bad for you you would be locked up in the house drinking evian and eating avocados. Your only here once so im making the most of it. Ive just ate a lovely omelette out of my teflon frying pan and I might even have another one tomorrow 👍🏻 Lifes to short to worry about things like teflon imo.

: monocle falls out:

This thread is a very interesting example of new information, the reaction to that new information, the cognitive dissonance expressed after contemplation of that new information. Fascinating, simply fascinating...

:Puts monocle back in:

Well you learn something new every day. As a young apprentice pretty much all I did for the first few months was work with ptfe and I have been around it in a small way ever since. My wife always says that I am a slippery f####r

I think they've been trying to put people off smoking for a while now, as well as warning about protection from the sun.                  


Yet not about using carcinogenic products in your food, nor environmentally damaging products in the air you go through, neither about how plastics get into your food from plastic containers or clingfilm.


You know about air pollution, yet not what is necessarily in the air.

Big corporations do not care as long as they make money, to hell with the people and the environment.

Personally I prefer non non stick pans to cook with.

If someone is concerned about Teflon in clothing we should accept their choice.

They should accept that most of us don't give a flying **** too.I thought for Teflon to be dangerous it had to be used over a certain temperature and I'm sure it is quite a high temperature too.Mobile phones are supposedly dangerous,we still all use them daily more so than wearing or using Teflon.Where do you draw the line of what you worry about,one thing is for sure in life and that's death.Enjoy it well you can and make the most of everyday

Authorities have been banning carcinogens from food, cosmetics etc for years. It was generally reported as 'EU bans our (insert product name). No doubt more could be done though.

Plastics and food is difficult. It's bad in itself, but if using plastics extends the useful life of the food, then that has value.

Big corporations simply do what their shareholders (the people) want - earn money. Maybe one day they'll realise it's not the be-all and end-all and they'll act more responsibly.

In the meantime, we're free to make choices - if we can afford to.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
