Hello coug, I have my doubts about aluminum too. It was well known that the users of iron pots caused people in old times to get too much iron, and for kids, toxic iron levels are quite dangerous. I'd be interested in knowing what your dad based it upon. So, what's that leave us? Stoneware? The glazes all have boron and the colors, well, that's just one heavy metal after another. It is unsafe to drink from heavily leaded glass but I see them sold at Costco and elsewhere for just such a purpose. Now Teflon is pretty inert so I guess you have to choose you poison as it were. I guess my main concern is that there is no credible challenge to the myriad chemicals that assault us daily. One would hope that's what the alphabet soup in DC does for us on a good day. There is no presumption of safety in Europe but they may have gone overboard. I sure felt better there though.
