Cast Iron, Aluminum, or stainless steel?

[Ticklebellly]

I don't use aluminum because the hysteria about using that material for cooking has left a nagging doubt. Stainless steel pot for boiling and stewing and soup. I don't have a stainless steel fry pan any more because I have never been able to season it to non-stick status. Cast iron was a favourite for a long time but I now have a carbon steel camp oven. Top turns over for a frypan and seasoned to be every bit as non-stick as the expensive items. Big advantage is that I don't have any concerns about the overheating prohibition for the coated non-stick pots and pans.
