Question from edumommy

I am starting to convert all my cookware over to safe pans. I picked up 2 pans today made by “ecolution” that claim to be PFOA free. They are aluminum however. Have you heard of these and do you know if they are ok to use? Also have some ecolife pans that look safe. They are PFOA and PTFE free.

Debra’s Answer

I took a look at the Ecolution website. They say that their nonstick finish is water-based and PFOA-free, but it looks to still be a plastic-based finish, rather than a ceramic-based finish. So it would be safer than Teflon, for example, but not as inert as ceramic.

As for “ecolife” cookware, I googled this and it gave me responses for half a dozen different brands. If you can give me a URL for the pans you actually have, I can comment.
