/s I am indeed unreasonably mad.

Not that you put the cast iron in the dishwasher (enjoy your rust), but the fact that you can actually fit the pan in your dishwasher. I recently spent $350 on a portable dishwasher and your iron skillet is bigger than that. I bought that thing to NOT have to scrub dishes. Thanks for reminding me that I STILL have to scrub pots and pans!

You baby your cookware and debate the differences of each type.

I don't even know what type of cookware I have.

We are not the same.

I love cast iron for cooking. It's also very forgiving. Depending what I am cooking it gets treated carefully for the seasoning, or scrubbed with dish soap. The beautiful thing is I can take it camping, come home and scrub all the 'seasoning' off, then re-season with 30 min in the oven an a bit of olive oil.

Setting off the pan nerds should be listed as a war crime by the Geneva Convention.

Meanwhile, I'm like "huh, maybe you should learn how to cook, but you do your stuff, that's your own business".

Wash it all you want, should be fine as long as you hand dry it after.

I put mine in the clothes dryer with a load of socks. Is that wrong?

[–] Alexstarfire 6 points 2 weeks ago

Depends on how much you like buying dryers.

Also throw in the metal fork you used to scrape your expensive non-stick pan.

You can wash Cast Iron all you like, I wouldn't suggest the dishwasher, just don't use soap, scrape with a plastic paint scrapper under hot water, heat until smoking, rub some oil on it, let cool. Easy peasy. After knowing we're all poisoning ourselves with the nonstick coating and have been for decades, the Cast Iron is a great nonstick alternative.
