I have some copper bottom pans that are non-magnetic and want to know if they are aluminum or austenitic stainless steel (the only steel that is non-magnetic). Is there an easy way to tell?

Look for a stamp on the back of the that will look like a fraction it is usally 18/10 or 18/15 this number tells you the quality of your stainless cookware. The first number is the percentage of chromium and the second number is the percentage of nickel. The higher level of nickel the better the cookware, and less likely to corrode.

A friend of a friend in CA. Told him about pans that make electrons available during cooking to fight free radicals/cancer? Does not have the info… anyone have info? Have a website?

The only cookware on the market that I know of is the Kenzen cookware by Nikken. They are high quality pots and pans, but with a battery in the handle making something like electrons to keep the molecules from becoming free radicals with heat and oxidation. This is a product that was first offered in CA.
