Question: are nonstick frying pans safe?
Answer: The nonstick coating is made from a chemical called PTFE, also known as Teflon, which makes cooking and washing up fast and easy. ... However, Teflon has been PFOA-free since 2013. Today's nonstick and Teflon cookware is completely safe for normal home cooking, as long as temperatures do not exceed 570°F (300°C).
