Cast Iron or Stainless Input

[sensitivenips]

Tweeti am looking to get away from teflon due to rumors of long term use causing cancer. so i am looking at getting either cast iron or stainless steal cooking ware. do any of you have any feedback and recommendations on good cooking ware between the two?

i used a stainless steal to fry some eggs, loaded up the pan with oil, and the eggs still stuck to the pan ruining my efforts to make fried eggs. so im not sure if brand has anything to do with it, or if there is a trick im not aware of.

Tweetcast iron from my understanding disperses heat better . I cook all my pot roasts and pastas in them it kicks ass. stainless seems to give me the same problems with sticking not a fan of ss. I had one of those "green" non stick pans bought at target and it worked great for about six months now its been replaced with a high end kitchenaid non stick, giving this one a shot. unfortunately for eggs the non stick is the only way to go I have yet to find. as far as those pan with the grill ribs just stay away from those what a pain in the ass to clean and I have yet to get any good grill effects on the food but then again I have an electric stove.
one other thing I have found is if using electric get the think pans that don't warp over time with heat. never again will I take the cheap way out with my everyday cooking pan. as far as Teflon goes its a nessesary evil I haven't been able to replace in the kitchen

those coated ones are great I don't have that I got the original black not good for eggs. if I ever upgrade that's where im going ceramic coated cast iron.
actually one of my cast iron post is about 60+ years old it was my great grandmothers and it still works fantastic. cast iron lasts forever
