You are the first person to mention Griswold. They haven't been made since 1957 but can be bought on e-bay & found in antique stores. They are great.

The advice here has all been good. It has been mentioned that you don't cook with tomatoes, also iron pots are not bean pots either. I am careful to only fry or roast in mine. I don't cook anything that needs water added to it like stew. They can be washed with soap after they have built up a good finish but do not soak or put away wet. Heat on stove after washing & oil before putting away is a good plan but not absolutely necessary if you only fry.
