Ordering & Shipping (1)

We take only custom orders if:

  1. What is available now is inadequate for your needs.

  2. The custom item will make a difference in the health/nutritional value of food.

We specifically stay away from customization if we know that the new items may be an impediment to healthy cooking.

The good news is you don’t really need custom pots for instant pot cooking. You can cook all your food healthier and faster directly on the stove-top. In addition, the pot can “breathe” when on the stovetop, thereby fortifying food with oxygen. In an instant pot machine, this is not possible. On top of that, the unit is made with toxic materials and plastic, which can off-gas into food and the air.While most cooking takes several hours in an instant pot, they can be done in 30-40 minutes in MEC. The end result is more nutritious, delicious, and 100% non-toxic.

Unique Product Features & Benefits (1)

There are several benefits to not using this toxic paint-like substance to coat our cookware. Here are a few:  Glazing blocks micro-pores and prevents the pots ability to breathe. A breathable pot is capable of so much more; for instance, it can make your yogurt naturally thicker, let rice cook fluffier & softer (not sticky), cook without using oil (can’t cook without oil or grease on glazed cookware), and extract toxins from food.

Also, they’re much easier to clean without the glaze on the walls: a seasoned, breathable pot repels food from sticking.  Glaze is toxic, and it doesn’t make sense to coat a 100% pure & non-toxic raw material, used for cooking with a toxic & potentially dangerous substance that’s neither time-tested nor proven to be safe.  Glazing also creates toxic waste &: it generates toxic fumes during firing that clearly would disqualify our product from being 100% non-toxic and safe!
