I would like to know WTO on this China info also.
Just received this in a freepmail:
Chinese cast iron pots are dangerous - they may have lead in them, as Chinese apparently melts down engine blocks and make cast iron ware... ..
Recently I bought some very cheap aluminum pans (made in China) for cat dishes, and lo and behold - areas are getting rusty...aluminum?
Obviously other metals mixed up in there.
So I would strongly urge everyone to check their cast iron pots/frying pans and get rid of anything not made in the US (if you live in the US) or at least, nothing made in China. Lodge is a good US brand.
