Cast Iron Shopping

I know this isn't always the time of year people think of shopping for themselves, but my birthday is around the corner and it is time to be thinking about what I want. I would really like some new cast iron cookware. Now, when I say new what I mean is new to me. I'm into quality cast iron, and I have always seasoned my own. When I went gluten free I did get a "good" Lodge skillet and strip and season it appropriately but one skillet is hardly sufficient for my needs. My preference is Griswold but I'm paranoid due to how porous iron is. Searches online bring up so many varied opinions that I thought coming here would be best.

Does anyone use Griswold cast iron cookware they have stripped and redone themselves without any issues? I have in the past done the self-cleaning oven thing but for peace of mind am more than wiling to go the sand blasting route if anyone has used that with greater success or thinks it is safer.

I like the ones with enamal coating. I believe they are cast iron because they are heavier then all heck.

What i'm talking about is something akin to this:

:blink: I... there aren't even words for that.

I'm not necessarily anti-enamel, but specifically what I prefer is the old, quality cast iron I grew up using. I also like the non-stick-ness of a good cast iron pan and there is frankly nothing in the world like a good Griswold. The two would be used entirely differently, at least by me. An enamel one would be nice to make my taco meat in since I'm stuck using stainless steel. Really though, my heart's desire is a nice "new" antique.

      Waiting Gastroenterology review

      By RMJ · Posted

      That means the normal range (i.e. not celiac disease) would be a result less than 14.99.  Your result is WAY above that. Some gastroenterologists would diagnose that as celiac disease even without a confirming biopsy because it is more than ten times the top of the normal range.

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,
