You’re telling me that one of the reasons that water is globally polluted with PFAs is because Germans love David Hasselho… I mean, because German parchment paper is coated in Teflon?
EDIT: google says that the vast majority of parchment paper is silicone coated, not teflon. I was starting to get a justice arrhythmia, I can calm down a bit now.
Jokes aside, apparently it’s not teflon on parchment paper. Even if it was, it’s not the teflon itself, it’s the manufacturing of it that is problematic in terms of PFAs. Apparently also high heat is sufficient to cause Teflon to degrade and PFAs to be released. It’s crazy that it is still being used in cookware at all. I switched over to cast iron and Asian-grocery store brand stainless cookware, though my new air fryer has teflon and I’m suffering from sunk-cost fallacy in relation to it.

You’re not supposed to flush your parchment paper.

Just get a cast iron air fryer.
