This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This has been my experience with cast iron. There's so, so, so much conflicting information on them. Even in this thread.
I wish the Mythbusters would come back just to test via experimentation all these conflicting claims.
America's test kitchen has done that, although I can't find one that addresses all the bits of misinformation.
This one is pretty ok, but doesn't address all things, and doesn't specifically call out the myths: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUComSZbZ7o
Notably missing is tomatoes/highly acidic foods. IIRC, it's fine if the duration is short (about 15 minutes). Shakshuka and quick tomato sauces should be fine, but don't make Grandma's all-day tomato sauce. Regardless, for these contexts I'd still grab stainless if that's an option, but mostly for ease of use/cleaning
