MODERATORS
 

The French National Assembly on Thursday unanimously adopted a bill aimed at restricting the manufacture and sale of products containing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances — also known as PFAS or “forever chemicals.” The MPs, backed by the government, voted to exclude kitchen utensils from the scope of the text.

Thanks to an intense lobbying push, manufacturers of frying pans and saucepans — including the SEB group, which owns Tefal — are exempt from this ban under the proposed law penned by French Green MPs.

Majority groups initially tried to delay the ban on kitchen utensils until 2030 — a timetable refused by the French Green MPs who instead suggested an exemption until 2026.

I'd add carbon steel pans as well. They're the good tradeoff between stainless and cast iron.

I like cast iron mainly for baking (Dutch oven, etc) and carbon steel for pans.

Yeah, I do that too. Cast iron is amazing for stuff like that.

It was on Kickstarter which makes me a bit nervous, but I found a set of carbon steel clad pans from a new company called Strata Cookware. They're the weight of something like an All-Clad but with a carbon steel top sheet. Pretty excited to try them out.
