For ****s sake!

Gas Stoves - I'd bet that 13%+ of asthma cases in kids is a direct cause of diet and processed foods. Fat kids can't breath.


This is true. OP feelings are hurt because he doesn't want to pay back his loans and mean conservatives want him to. This is his revenge.

Not all electric sucks. Induction is in many ways better than gas and is used in high end kitchens and by chefs around the world.


Putting something in writing doesn't make it true. Electric cook tops blow.


Traditional yes. Induction no. Virtually every high end restaurant in Europe uses them. Many here do. It has a lot of advantages over gas.

People in Europe use electric because they're forced to. Seem reason they have ****ty tiny bathrooms and crappy bare kitchens, minuscule appliances. It's not because they're better it's because socialism sucks.

I think your hard on for all things Tesla is bleeding over into other areas. This isn't the same thing.

A lot of steak houses use induction for searing. It's more efficient than gas and heats the pan to insane temperatures in seconds.

Missing from that sales piece:

High end kitchens

Chefs




But it's cool some noodle place uses them. I like that they mentioned not to get a vent hood too noisy for the "chef" to "interact with the customer". Sounds more like the omelette station also mentioned in the "article".

I'm not 12 dude. Who doesn't know what an induction cooktop is.

Specifically… it's Latin for slightly less crappy electric cooktop.

I have a gas cooktop at home and an electric one at our vacation rental in Surfside where gas isn't an option. Electric sucks plain and simple. I'm not giving up my gas, ever.

Thanks but you haven't backed up your assertion at all. That was a sales fluff piece quoting a noodle "chef"

And in the kitchen at The French Laundry I saw a lot of gas burners

Clean electric stove tops? Really! You do know, that there is no such thing as clean electric.

You want "clean" cook your food on an open fire, from a tree you cut down with an ax.

There are lots of advantages. You can try to defend your assertion first though before asking questions.

This isn't even an externality that harms uninvolved 3rd parties (like say pollution or 2nd hand smoke).

This is akin to not allowing an adult to smoke in their own home because of fears of 2nd hand smoke to their children. Don't worry about my kids. I am more than capable of making decisions regarding what potential risks are and aren't real and/or acceptable, and it is absolutely not the federal government's job to do it for me.
So you are going to run your own study to decide if it's real or not? How did you decide that smoking actually causes cancer?


I'm done blindly "trusting the science" or believing that our doctors and scientists are even capable of honestly and accurately arriving at such a conclusion as "13% of childhood asthma is caused by gas stoves". Especially when the whole "man made climate change" doomsday cult nonsense has been exposed perverting science and medicine countless times.

If it's a conveniently "green friendly" conclusion, alarms automatically go off for me now. I know, I must be stupid. Oh well, don't care.

You're probably against nuclear, but for ripping up the Congo.

From the article, which mentions using gas as well by the top chefs:

"As a result, induction hobs are seen as a useful and accessible piece of kit for the ambitious chef with limited money and space."

Well if you're poor and have no space those sound like advantages. Like I said, keep googling, maybe I'll check back. But do better this time than a theme restaurant and a "currently closed" wine bar without space for a real kitchen.

I cook just fine on either. I prefer electric because I can use the cooktop for food prep as extra counter space. I keep my gas outside at the grill. I've had both on demand gas and traditional gas water heaters. On demand doesn't work when the power goes out.

I am surprised that more people don't blow up their houses with gas. It's interesting to see what will happen if/when hydrogen starts getting piped to homes. This will happen first in Europe.
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough
