True... ;-)

Even with careful care and cleaning, I used to replace my teflon pans
about every 6 months. For the old ones, I'd remove the handle and use
them as water catchers for potted plants, or treat dishes out in the
chicken yard.

And, I found that the price I paid made no difference so I started
buying the cheap ones.

Now I use Griswold cast iron......
I grew up. <lol>
