We stopped using our beautiful stainless steel gas stove in favor of two induction burners and have not looked back. We did this for many reasons. Open flames always are a problem. They are dangerous in many ways.Our kitchen is easier to clean, the air feels better, the kitchen is not heated, the food is cooked not everything else around it. It is just a better cooking experience.However, we have to keep the gas stove, because we rent and if there is a power outage we can cook if needed. That said, I noticed on our new ConEd bill that we are being charged 30.00 a month for our gas when we use zero therms.I am guessing that is for the privilege of having the service we don't use except for emergency back up in the case of electric power failures. Bottom line, gas stoves have probably contributed to many health issues just like cigarettes do and even though they are for profit businesses, my question is, "at what cost to our health?"
