Are the all clad items mostly 18/10 stainless steel?
I think they have different components (of the same piece) made of different grades of metal. For example most knives (in general, as a general example of a multi-component item) have one type of stainless for the food contact surface (the blade) and another type of stainless for the handle.

Are all unmarked stainless steel utensils typically lead free? It’s my understand that any paints usually contain lead. We bought a cheap stainless utensil set from tjmaxx and it’s made in China. Please give us your insight!
It’s hard for me to evaluate it without seeing it, but as long as it does not have components made of materials other than stainless it should be Lead-free.

Hi Tamara !
New website is so convenient ! I’m here every day looking forward to reading your new posts! That’s just awesome we can find healthy options of products we need!
I bought a grater Nonpro you mentioned above BUT it has a painted logo Nonpro on the product. The paint is silver(grey?) and it makes me nervous. Have you checked the logo as well?
Hi Tamara – I thought I saw a BBQ tool set on your website a few weeks ago but I can no longer find it. Any recommendations for a BBQ tool set?
Hi Tamara. Do you have any options for stainless steel tongs? A couple of size choices would be great, but preferably smaller serving sizes for dinner parties. Also, curious if you know of any safe S.S. cookie cutters. Would love to be able to make cookies with my little one. Thank you so much!
I’m looking for a mortal and pestal to grind flax seeds and spices. I found one made from marble. What is lead safe ?
Oh – good question. I will look for some examples to add to this.
How would I know if the stainless steel I have is lead free? Like the cheese grater I already own for eg? Before I just throw everything out and buy what you recommend lol
