You know, eating meat is a non generational thing right? It's literally a lifestyle. Just like, I don't know: Vegetarian, Vegan, Pescatarian, Pollotarian, Flexitarian and dozens more. Asking everyone to just be "veggie" without taking this into consideration is such a myopic view.
The success of this largely depends on the building itself though, so don't expect this to be a miracle cure as mileage may vary.
The older the property, the more these costs mount against this idea. Why? The cost to redo the plumbing for kitchens or bathrooms and even electrical for appliances to make them livable is quite literally more than the value of the entire property many times. Again, it's not a cure, it's a bandaid.
It's a personal choice, but I've used Lodge along with a few other brands over the years and my 12 inch Field cast iron is my favorite.
Fields just feel like two thirds the weight of others and the new ones with the preseasoning last a good while before needing to reseason again. Very much worth it to me.
It just wasn't the same honestly. There were channels cut into the side after she cleaned it that I always got food stuck in that spot. I would have had to sand it down to get rid of it.
Not before I take this steel wool scour pad to a fully seasoned Field Company cast iron skillet that was soaked OVERNIGHT in vinegar water and then complain how dirty it was.
My Mother in Law literally did this. She ultimately bought me a new one.
Yes, yes you would lmao
