[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, please google about the hidden dangers of crockpot cooking

I'm shocked at how many people are recommending one to a cancer patient [/quote]

not OP but instead of telling us to google this, why don't you just briefly tell us why crockpot cooking is so dangerous?[/quote]
The concern is that the ceramic liners of crock pots leach lead into food. The sources on this aren't very strong (they all seem to point back to a TV investigation in 2004; things could have changed since then) but that's the issue. Crockpot manufacturers say that their liners are lead free but the concern is that even liners that are lead safe by FDA standards could still be leaching small amounts of lead.

I can't tell how much to be concerned about this. I'd have to do more looking into it. But I just wanted to answer the question, since the alarmist poster who brought it up didn't do so. [/quote]

NP here.  There's also concerns about the Teflon lining.[/quote]
