Answer:
Thats bull. How can cookware cause cancer and what cancer is that??
That sounds like a absolute ridiculous scare tactic.
It makes no sense.
Answer:
A test was done on birds and I'm not sure if it was cancer but it was deadly to them, but for us its not. The only way it's harmful to us is to turn the heat on real high don't put anything in it and the vapors you breath in from it you will get mild symptoms of like the flu, but it's very unlikely that you do get it. In other words it's safe. Newton Brown was talking about it the other day on good eats on the food network.
Answer:
I try to avoid nonstick as much as possible.
I use mostly glass (in microwave), stainless steel, and cast iron.
