Is it safe to cook food in aluminium pots ?
🧐 Research Wanted 🤔
I was trying to convince my buddy to buy steel over aluminium because I’ve read about health issues with aluminium especially when cooking acidic foods
Isn't that the truth! I have a stovetop grill that covers two burners that is getting extremely hard to wield, but I refuse to give it up, meat tastes and looks (grill marks like a restaurant), sooooo good seared and cooked on it!
I also found some lighter glass and stainless lids from other pots and pans that fit a few of my cast iron pieces.
Yes, and thrift stores are great places to find glass lids. Also, cast iron is what kept the early pioneers and cowboys from being iron deficient; or so I've been told. I was told that some of the iron would leech into the food by scraping the pan and so they would have iron in their diet. Don't know for sure.
I've heard that about iron in the food, and I believe it. If aluminum can leech, then it stands to reason that other metals would, as well.
Well, I guess I'll never be iron deficient.

One less thing to worry about! 😄
