Cuisinart GreenGourmet Eco-Friendly 8-Inch Open Skillet Reviews

Review by B. S. Hill:

I am an avid home chef and a fervent hater of nonstick cookware. I went through so many sets of nonstick in my early married years, everything from the “whole kitchen in a box” set I got as wedding gift to a “top of the line” set that my mother-in-law gave me years later. I babied the stuff, but it still wound up scratched and peeling and in the trash. And, I never liked the cooking performance of any of it. So, many years ago I threw it all out and bought an 18/10 stainless set- which I love and praise to anyone who will listen, and have never had to replace a single piece of. BUT, even I will admit that it’s tough to get a decent fried egg from a stainless pan, so I kept an 8″ nonstick skillet around just for that purpose. It was needing to be replaced so I decided to go with hard anodized. Hesitantly, I was going to get another brand with the teflon type finish. Then I saw this, and liked the idea of the the ceramic type finish. I can’t tell you how much I love this pan. It fries beautifully. Sears salmon and steaks. Cleans with a wipe and a rinse. I have had this for a couple of months, used it MANY times, and am getting ready to buy the 12″ for bigger jobs. Even my 8 year old can make beautiful(no tears)fried eggs with it. Oh, and did you know that you can thaw meats faster in it. Hard anodized is an amazing conducter of heat, so it pulls the cold out of the food. Just set it on the counter (covered) and wait about 20 minute (depends on thickness of the meat) turn it over once and voila you have thawed meat.

Review by Kim Gordon:

Please note that when you read all the positive reviews that they are from brand new pans. This review is after using the pan for just less than 2 months. I was so excited to buy this pan! After reading so much about non stick pans and how unhealthful they are I was really psyched to come across this one and purchased the 12″ after frustrating results with the upkeep and care necessary to keep an iron skillet relatively stick free. This pan was great and I almost bought a whole bunch of them after about a week. Eggs, pancakes, sandwiches, sauces, etc. Nothing stuck. Then it slowly started to stick. I was careful with the cleaning, we use olive oil and butter to fry, but now, merely two months after purchasing it, it sticks like crazy. NOTHING doesn’t stick to this pan. It’s even hard to clean. I am sure that technology will come up with a ‘new improved’ non toxic non stick surface, but this, sadly isn’t it. It’s like buying a brand new model car when you should have waited for them to get the kinks out. They have to be getting mail from people like me all the time. This pan stinks.

Review by I am the walrus:

A great toy set. We can ACTUALLY eat with these. The kids love them. What cool colors too! Also a huge plus: they are sustainably made.

The dishes are duarable, colorful and great for pretending. I don’t know how it is considered educational, but I suppose in the immitation of real meals the dishes help that development. Our daughter and I were were impressed that the dishes are made from recycled plastics. We both are big believers in recycling as much as we can. Go Green!

Environmentally Friendly Technologies for Agricultural Produce Quality

While ecology as a whole continues to receive considerable attention, postharvest food handling, until recently, had not been examined from a green perspective. This has changed as health-conscious consumers look to improve both their diets and their environment. Environmentally Friendly Technologies for Agricultural Produce Quality is the first book to take a focused look from an ecological point of view at the way produce is preserved, packaged, and shipped. The book’s editor, Shimshon Ben-Yehoshua, a leader in the international scientific community, presents a framework he refers to as the triple bottom line, which takes into consideration economic and societal issues and an environmental perspective.

Experts and eminent researchers discuss recent developments, such as the use of genetic engineering, modified atmosphere packaging, pest control for durable and perishable produce, all designed to reduce spoilage without compromising quality or negatively impacting the environment. Keeping faith with the triple bottom line, the book explores related topics such as innovations in transportation and the value of produce to human health. This book makes an excellent handbook for postharvest professionals and others handlers of produce as well as a textbook for students preparing to meet the needs of a health and ecology conscious society.

Environmentally friendly persuasion. (food packagers highlight successful recycling efforts): An article from: Food Processing

This digital document is an article from Food Processing, published by Putman Media, Inc. on September 1, 1993. The length of the article is 1406 words. The page length shown above is based on a typical 300-word page. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Digital Locker immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

From the supplier: Food processors and packagers are promoting the fact that they are ahead of recycling targets and have implemented successful waste management programs without the coercion of state and federal legislation. Grocery food packaging made up only 7% of the total municipal solid waste in 1990. To supplement recycling programs, packagers are developing biodegradable products that can be turned into a rich humus. Cooperative efforts between food packagers and environmental groups are increasing the focus on composting and recycling of solid waste.
