I am doing the same. I think I'm going with the glass cookware by

Visions (pyrex). You can get it used on ebay!!!

Glass seems like the safest to me!!

There was a discussion on one of the groups I'm on (don't think it was

this one) but they called Corning and were told that they use lead in

all their products. I would call to check.

Hi Rainy,

Arcopal,Pyrex and other glass based cookware is really good. I even

replaced my son's lunch boxes with glassware. Throw out teflons,or you

can decorate them and plant some flowers, watch out don't buy expensive

flower seeds because they can die anytime:)

When you are buying stainless stell cookware, weigh them. Heaviest ones

are the usually good ones.It doesn't mean that 100% safe but atleast if

the real steel amount is more than other ones it means that could take

longer for the cookware to go chemical reaction with heat.

Right after you cook, just switch the food to the Glassware such as

Pyrex.

If your child is on GF/CF and if you sending his/her lunch to the

school, and if they need to warm it there use pyrex or arcopal instead

of GLAD etc.

Never using MW is the best way.Throw away your MW right now like my

son's D.A.N doctor says:)

I appreaciate to my own Mom here(I called and thank her couple of

months ago) because she was a full time teacher for 45 years, never

used plastics in our kitchen, refused to buy MW, only oil she used to

cook was olive oil, never used margarins or butters. She made us

healthy breakfasts everysingle day ready, home made lunches, and every

night we had home made dinner on our table. She never used frozen

food,making our own tomato paste and sauce from the fresh tomatoes was

fun for us.

When I start giving the same to my son, I understand how hard what she

has done.

Have a wonderful, and hopefull day!

I once attended a dinner where they cooked everything in waterless stainless

cookware.

When they cleaned up afterward, they used a stainless steel cleaning powder that

cleaned the cookware really well. It was just like new, and it didn't take a lot

of elbow grease.

Since then, I have kept on hand various brands of stainless steel cleaning

powders. I have used Barkeep's Friend and Cameo. I think there is another brand

or two. They have all cleaned really well.

I have found that they even work to clean ceramic coffee mugs. I had a favorite

mug that I used for months and months at work, where there wasn't a good place

for washing dishes. When I finally took it home and tried to remove the stains

from the mug, I tried everything I could find--steel wool, Comet, Tylex--nothing

would work. Finally, I tried my stainless steel cleaning powder. All I did was

sprinkle the powder into the wet mug and wipe it with a paper towel that I

dipped into the dishwater. In no time at all, the mug was as clean as the day I

bought it! It was as smooth as could be, too. Just like new!

Anyway, if you have never tried one of these stainless steel cleaning powders,

try it before you spend a lot of money on another brand of cookware.

Try the easy stuff first, that's what I always say!
