Question from n rose

Does anyone know about the safety of Lodge Cast Iron cookware (sold at Wal mart). I have used stainless for years, and wanted to get a cast iron pan. What should I be wary of? The mfg process says it is seasoned with a special soy oil and baked at high temp.

Any recomendations?

Debra’s Answer

I’m fine with Lodge Cast Iron and have included it on Debra’s List.

In fact, I recommend this brand because many other (often brandless) cast iron pans are “seasoned” with paint that chips off. See Cast Iron Skillets Made in China.
