I came across this page recently that includes a published warning by Revere Ware of the dangers of fumes released by Teflon coated pans that are heated without contents and the danger they post to pet birds. Teflon coated Revere Ware pans have not been on our list of preferred vintage Revere Ware but we thought this tip was worth passing on.
Update: the original warning that mentioned Revere Ware specifically has been removed from the Environmental Working Groups website. Here is their general Teflon warning.
I received a set of Revere Teflon coated pans in 1972. I stopped using them in the early 90’s. I hate to throw them out, they still look new. Is there a replacement program without teflon?
There is no Revere Ware replacement anymore and hasn’t been since 2018 when the brand was shuttered.
