Forever Chemicals & Toxins in Cookware: The Complete Guide LeafScore 2025-05-19 | Are you worried about toxins in your cookware? We are too. Here is a guide to avoiding forever chemicals in your cooking surfaces. PFAS stands for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, of which there are more than 9,000. This group of chemicals contain a strong carbon-fluorine bond which is hard to break, meaning they tend to accumulate in animal tissue and in the environment.Learn more, here: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/pfas-pfoa-and-ptfe-everything-you-need-to-knowPFOA (perfluorooctanoic acid, or C8) is one of the most common types of PFAS found in the environment. This chemical, along with the very similar PFOS (perfluorooctane sulfonate), was once used widely in household products such as stain-resistant carpeting and couches, other household textiles, household cleaning products, and in firefighting foams.PFOS and PFOA are less commonly used these days, largely because of growing recognition of the health effects of these chemicals.What about PTFE?PTFE stands for polytetrafluoroethylene and is a chemical once used alongside PFOA to produce Teflon, Dupont’s patented non-stick chemical coating used in a lot of cookware and bakeware. Because of concerns over the health effects of PFOA, manufacturers began making PFOA-free non-stick cookware in recent years. The trouble, though, is that this cookware isn’t necessarily PTFE-free, meaning many of the same health concerns remain. These products are often marketed as "Teflon Free," but that doesn't mean they are safe to cook with.For more, see: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/the-problem-with-teflon-and-other-non-stick-pots-and-pansShop our nontoxic cookware collection, here: shop.leafscore.com/collections/cookware

An Honest Caraway Cookware Review Based on Our Staff Testing LeafScore 2025-05-19 | We tested Caraway cookware extensively and reviewed third-party lab testing, which shows the products are free of forever chemicals, like PTFE, PFOA, PFAS, and heavy metals. Shop LeafScore's curated cookware collection, here: shop.leafscore.com/collections/cookwareHere are the pros and cons of cooking with Caraway based on our first-hand experience.I asked the company for copies of third-party testing and they immediately sent me the results of such for all their cookware.Every pot and pan passed with flying colors.This included passing California’s Prop 65 testing for lead and cadmium.Test results showed no detectable PTFE, PFOA, lead, cadmium, chromium or other heavy metals. There was also no worrisome leaching of other chemicals of concern even when tested in acidic solutions to mimic cooking with, say, an acidic tomato sauce. Very small amounts of some metals were detected in the first and second use of a pan but these were completely undetectable by the third pass. As such, if you’re really concerned over exceptionally tiny amounts of aluminum, iron, manganese, magnesium, and so forth, you could simmer some orange juice in the pan for a while and then give it a good clean to get rid of any residual traces.Read the full review, here: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/cookware/caraway-cookware-reviewMore on the LeafScore methodology, here: leafscore.com/methodology
Why We Love 360 Brand Bakeware - A Review LeafScore 2025-05-19 | We tested the 360 Bakeware 5-Piece Set, which is built to last and free from forever chemicals, like PTFE. Shop 360 Bakeware, here: tinyurl.com/mwykducz360 Cookware is one of our favorite US cookware brands, thanks to its sustainably made, smartly designed slow cookers, cookware, and bakeware.The 360 bakeware set is a top choice for kitting out a new kitchen or replacing toxic PTFE bakeware with non-toxic, sturdy, durable, and attractive pans and cookie sheets.360 uses no less than 5-ply surgical grade stainless steel (T-304) to handcraft its bakeware in the US. Every piece is oven safe to 500 F and most feature ergonomic handles for safe, easy use.All of the pieces are available individually, but you get the best bang for your buck with the 5-piece set. This includes:Two 9-inch round cake pans – 2-inches tallA stainless steel pie pan9-inch x 13-inch bake and roast panLarge cookie sheet – measuring 17.5 inches x 14.22 inches rim to rimThanks to the 5-ply design, the bakeware heats fast and evenly, for best results every time. My only wish is that 360 offered a muffin pan too!Aside from the price, which is high but worth it for such long-lasting bakeware, the main downside to this set is the riveted handles. The handles are great for safer handling of hot bakeware but those internal rivets can be a pain to keep clean. Don’t worry, though, if you don’t like or want the handles, you can purchase handle-free versions of the pans separately and make your own bakeware set!View our full bakeware roundup, here: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/the-best-non-toxic-bakewareShop our LeafScore rated cookware collection, here: shop.leafscore.com/collections/cookwareMore on forever chemicals in cookware, here: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/pfas-pfoa-and-ptfe-everything-you-need-to-know
Alva Cookware Non-Stick Pan Review - PTFE Free Maestro Line LeafScore 2025-05-19 | Alva Cookware is a family-run Belgian cookware brand that has been making quality cookware since 1949. We rate the brand 5-leaves and proudly carry Alva in our online store: shop.leafscore.com/collections/cookwareThis review focuses on the Maestro frying pan, a nontoxic nonstick ceramic pan made by Alva. As with some other direct-to-consumer cookware brands (like Made In, Caraway, and Xtrema), Alva offers chef-quality cookware at the same price or less than you’d pay for mid-range cookware at a big box store. The big difference with Alva is that it has a longstanding reputation for sustainability (which is why they made it on our YouTube channel).When I first encountered Alva Cookware, I admit to being very skeptical. I almost wrote off the company as another cookware brand trying to pass off non-stick cookware as non-toxic.Fortunately, I asked the company to get test results and after some back and forth I was given a raft of reports from Alva’s testing in the European Union.While the U.S. reports showed that the cookware passed safety regulations, I wanted to see things like leach tests and full PFAS reports.Alva was very open about the testing, which isn’t surprising given that everything passes with flying colors!These pots and pans are genuinely PFAS-free and haven’t been found to contain or to leach any chemicals of concern.The reports show that Alva cookware complies with strict EU food contact standards (EC1935:2004) as well as specific German, Italian, French, and Dutch food safety standards.Combined, Alva cookware has undergone at least 24 different migration, content and composition tests, in addition to tests confirming the absence of PFOA and PFOS.For more, see: Our Alva review: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/alva-non-toxic-cookware-review-staff-testedLeafScore's top rated nonstick products: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/best-non-toxic-nonstick-pansMore on our methodology and standards: leafscore.com/methodology
The Safest and Best Non Stick Pans - Plus What to Avoid LeafScore 2025-05-16 | Non-stick cookware is often a choice of convenience more so than sustainability, but there are a handful of brands doing things the right way: leafscore.com/eco-friendly-kitchen-products/best-non-toxic-nonstick-pansShop our collection of PTFE free cookware: shop.leafscore.com/collections/cookwareNewer non-stick coatings are often made with naturally occurring elements such as silicon and oxygen, rather than PTFE and PFOA. It is important to check labels, though, instead of going with marketing hype. The precise nature of the coatings is typically proprietary and writing to manufacturers often reveals some dirty little secrets of non-stick cookware. For example, there are some product marketed as PFOA-free but which aren’t PTFE-free; the coating is still PTFE, just applied with a water-based solvent instead of PFOA. In this video, we explain how to cut through the greenwashing and find truly non-toxic nonstick pans.

How to Check a Receipt for BPA LeafScore 2023-01-10 | Many paper receipts are a source of BPA exposure. The chemical is used to develop color in inkless thermal printing. Unfortunately, while BPA in food cans is bound to resins that line the cans, which helps stop at least some leaching, the BPA in thermal paper is unbound. This means you’re actually more likely to be exposed to BPA from receipts than from canned foods. Here is a simple trick to determine whether a receipt contains BPA.

Zero Waste Grocery Shopping at Whole Foods LeafScore 2021-04-05 | It's great to have zero waste ambitions, and if you have the time to get there, good for you! However, for most of us, living a 100% zero waste lifestyle is a tough hill to climb. If you are concerned about the environmental impact of your trips to the grocery store, there are some simple steps you can take to reduce your impact short of going zero waste. Creating a recycling-oriented grocery list is one of the best ways to cut down on trash that ends up in a landfill and cannot be recycled. Find out what can and cannot be recycled in your town and craft a grocery list accordingly. Where we live, plastic salad containers can't be recycled, so we opt for loose produce instead. Small steps like these can go a long way to making our shopping experience better for our local communities and for the planet.
