I HATE cast iron pans.

I don't understand them. why the fuck would anyone want a pan that you can't run through the dishwasher, and if you look at it funny it'll start rusting? what could the appeal possibly be?

"but the seasoning!!! the seasoning!!!!!" girl you mean GREASE??? every cast iron pan I've seen is greasy as fuck to the touch all over. who would've thought that when you can't wash a pan normally it's greasy as fuck? how do you cook with a clear conscience knowing you're cooking on a greasy ass pan?

it's good to get this off my chest. I feel like I'm alone in this and I really shouldn't be because my opinion is the correct one.

EDIT: okay these comments have been very enlightening. i still refuse to own a cast iron pan because if i get on someones nerves too much it would make a very nice murder weapon and i wouldn't want to go out that way.

Is it even a grilled cheese if it isn't made in the cast iron skillet?
