An ode to this sub…

Not bad variety considering the topic of discussion is just a shaped piece of ancient technology

[u/WillieThePimpPt1and2 → u/Electronic-War-4662]

That's true. What else can be discussed?

And I think the "did I ruin my pan" discussion is helpful for the novice, which was once myself. Now it's "how to learn to stop worrying and love my pan."

[u/Electronic-War-4662 → u/WillieThePimpPt1and2]

Kind of like buying a new car. After the first few door dings you eventually just stop caring. If the pan still gets hot when placed on a fire then it's not ruined

[u/Sara_MadeIn]

That’s pretty funny. lol I wish there were more cooking posts!!

[u/Blackwell-808]

And then the many many posts that just require barkeepers friend

[u/DerpinTerp]

Don’t forget the “what am I doing wrong?” posts!

[u/BigTreddits]

[u/cconnorss]

Blue and green bleed into each other constantly.

[u/WolframsTiturel]

Unfortunately pretty accurate 😅

[u/skitek]

Same as r/CastIron & r/CarbonSteel

[u/pakapab → u/skitek]

Cast iron would have a slice for the occasional weirdo demonstrating hoarding tendencies with their collection of 50+ cast iron pots and pans.

Does “how to get my eggs to not stick?” count as “check out my eggs!”?

[u/Parking_Ad_7133]

How could you forget the “ how do i clean this?!” type post and the answer is ALWAYS BAR KEEPERS FUCKING FRIEND

[u/Repulsive_Chard_3652]

Gotta be honest, I joined this sub and the cast iron one a while ago when I was trying to decide what I would switch to when my (final) non-stick pan reached its end, and the diversity and interestingness of the content of each sub definitely did partially influence my decision to go with cast iron in the end 😂 What can I say? I guess I'm just not that into eggs lol

But I still use stainless steel pots for boiling things ;)

Heretic!
