Sorry to add this so late, but TV news just told me about an increase in "Teflon Flu". Remembering you had non-stick pans, I wanted to find a link. In a quick check, the majority of the links seemed to come from somewhat suspicious sources such as NYPost and Daily Mail rather than a .gov or .edu.
I'm not saying this is a legitimate thing, but if anyone wants a starting point, you could try here: https://www.womenshealthmag.com/health/a61623919/teflon-flu-symptoms/
Wikipedia has an article on Polymer fume fever with some sources you may find more trustworthy or definite.
Thanks. I’m generally a little skeptical of things like this, but I’m also skeptical of the materials used in pretty much everything these days, so. I’m currently on team nonstick because I moved and needed some pans under $10 that would make my food hot. So that was my main consideration. It definitely does sound like stainless is probably a better bet in the future though, if/when I ever get around to buying quality kitchen things.
