I find cast iron to be the best. Lasts a long time too.I am getting ready to buy a new set. I'm thinking the Cuisinart MultiClad but I wanted to ask around before I do this.
I love my cast iron pans. They are the BEST! I pretty much only use my cast iron frying pans now. I don't like the Teflon coated pots and pans. That stuff sometimes wears off and can get in your food and it is poisonous I've heard.
Throw any teflon cookware away once it develops a scratch, that's all it takes is one scratch.
Now you'd have to consume quite a bit of teflon before it caused any serious damage, so cooking with teflon isn't dangerous as long as you throw away scratched cookware, or burned or what have you.
I don't even use Teflon. I prefer cast iron or stainless.
The electric skillet is one of the greatest inventions in modern kitchens IMO. thats about all the Teflon I use, well other than the aforementioned griddle and panini maker.
My preference is stainless though.
