LOL I really don't know what I'm getting into in regards to cleanup, but if the food should taste better and be healthier to eat I don't think I will give a hoot about the cleanup. Since I stopped cooking with Teflon a week ago, I have felt 100% better. I also hear food doesn't stick on good quality cookware (bottom must be thick enough.) It will take some time for me to trust next-generation non-stick material.
