When this pan says nonstick, it means nonstick! I made eggs in this pan, with no oil or butter, and the literally just slid out. The pan didn't even looked like it was used or dirty! I love because I then don't have to use a greaser to my food, which helps keeps the calories down. I know that sounds crazy, but hey, a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do! Will continue to use and love.
