The lid to my cast iron pot developed a huge crack
in it a few days ago, and only has a few more uses left.
It's only 28-29 years old. Shouldn't cast iron last
longer than that?

I had a chance to buy a second pot and lid at the same
time, and now I wish I had it. The first one only cost
$9.99 plus tax.
