    If it was good enough for grandma and grandpa, its good enough for me.

    Way better than the cheap aluminum/non stick shit.

    I introduced iron to my GF who had bought expensive Titanium pans that did exactly the same as the iron ones but are 20x the price, and blew her mind.

      Heck, grandma and grandpa’s old cast iron kitchenware is probably still good as new. I stumbled across a YouTube channel once (I forget what it was called) with a guy who restored old cast iron items as a hobby. Through the magic of WD-40, steel wool and some elbow grease he could turn a century old lump of rust he found at the bottom of a barn into a good-as-new iron frying pan. Try that with any of that “non-stick” shit they sell today.

        Yes, cast iron is 100% renewable even after a 100 years. I use my pan on a barbecue grill as well, and use it to grill some wings/steaks in the garden. Its my go to pan, and it will stay with me, even when all the aluminium shit is in the trash.
