Everything wears out, regardless of temperature. Sure Teflon lasts a good long time as long as certain temperatures aren't exceeded, but even at room temperature/dishwashing temperature, particles of those molecules are still gonna wear off, and they don't just randomly vanish.

What's that stink you smell out of your vacuum cleaner? Well yeah, lots of dust and dead skin cells and such, but also all the other toxic debris gradually wearing away from our household items and whatnot..

    And teflon scratches easy, and then you eat all the tiny little flakes every time you cook. Teflon is especially super bad, very carcinogenic.

    I hate it, I don't use it unless absolutely necessary. I make do with steel and cast iron. Nothing is worth having permanently contaminated food, day in day out, over years and decades.
