I am still dumbfounded how the Powers That Be have been so successful at marketing not just nonstick- but entire sets of nonstick cookware, to people. I wish I had those skills. Nonstick soup pots. 
I’m so glad I’m really really really old, and learned to cook before the era of Teflon.

No joke, @Meekah —I saw a teflon coated butter dish at the Dollar Store. I wish there were a way to be notified if someone buys it.

How could I have ever lived this long without one?
I hear they cause butter slippage issues if you don’t properly chill and score the underside of the butter. I’ll stick to my little glass container which sits on my counter with the butter suitably corralled.

You might be doing yourself a disservice by eating so well. You could end up going on until you’re 100 years old.
I believe that you need to eat well and not only super healthy and super boring for you to enjoy life.

If it isn’t really good, I 'd rather skip a meal than choke it down.

Claus, I’m sincerely hoping that red wine is the great equalizer. The French side of my family tend to live to their early to mid 80s, generally in good health and very independently, then bang, gone. No lingering. I suppose that’s what we all hope for. A little too morose, perhaps. Apologies.

I think the only diet proven to increase longevity is a very low calorie diet, just this side of starvation. Sounds like a lousy way to live a life.

And people will eat and drink the strangest things for purported health benefits. A friend tried to introduce me to mushroom coffee. I love mushrooms, and I love coffee. Note that there are two independent clauses in that sentence. I cannot imagine combining the two. The idea of mushroom coffee is right up there with those green smoothies. They remind me of the disposal backing up.
There are plenty of things to eat that taste wonderful and are healthy. I’ll stick to those, but for me food and beverage need to be high in psychological nutrients. To bring it back to Falk’s stupid new pan, give me a cheap steel, iron, or aluminum pan and plenty of butter for my eggs! I honestly cannot think of anything I’d prefer to be cooked in a nonstick pan.
