| I've just read the article in The Dirt about not using teflon coated cookware. Sorry to sound so dumb, but is Hard Anodized cookware the same as Teflon? |

| No, anodizing is not the same as teflon. Anodizing gives aluminum a scratch resistant, weather resistant coating and does not have the same outgassing properties as teflon when heated. |

| Thank you! Whew! I just paid a premium price for Calphalon cookware (hard anodized) and was afraid I was going to have to chuck it and buy stainless steel! That's a relief. Thanks for your reply. |
