Ancient wrought iron resists corrosion better than modern steel

It's just much harder to work with on an industrial scale

serious question

personally i try to use stoneware and find that you get all the benefits of non-stick without any of the issues that come with the chemical coatings

the guy that figures out how to turn QUARTZ into cookware is going to make a killing with zillennials

Patented idea. Law passed

The main thing I would worry about is what happens if you take it out of an extremely hot oven and pour ice cold water into it 10,000 times? Will it really never shatter violently? Are you sure you want to introduce this into the stream of commerce?

you just have to trust your metallurgists on that one

i scarcely see modern metals breaking from temperature related issues these days. seems like corrosion is the bigger issue

That's Visions cookware is made of glass. You know metal isn't going to shatter

I think silver reacts to acids, so it would be more similar to cooking with iron than stainless steel. Certain foods like tomatoes wouldn't do well

i heard a funny bit about why europeans thought the tomato was poisonous recently

i guess the upper class used pewter-heavy alloys in their serving and diningware and the acidity from the tomato would react with the alloy & start leaching off toxins

Yes, exceptionally well in part because it has a low melting point and can make perfect contact with uneven surfaces as it heats up and becomes malleable

it is wild how well old school iron holds up, my parents have a couple pieces of I guess essentially cast iron farm equipment from the 1800's that has just been sitting half covered in dirt and if you check it that shit is still solid
