Default Revere wear care questions

Yeah, it's difficult to do anything more serious than boiling
pasta in a Revereware. Even cooking beans is problematical
(they can stick to the hot spots). The main advantages are
they are cheap and light and you don't have to worry about
damaging them. I'd pick 'em over aluminum pans, or yet-cheaper
SS pans.

But Caphalon or other serious stainless steel pieces are
a whole 'nother animal.
