    Yea, I don’t understand why people are so rabid against gas all of a sudden. It seems like an odd hill to die on, with the current geopolitical issues.

    From my own experience, moving from an area with only electric heat/stoves: gas is far cheaper, and safer(have you seen the dreadful electrical work in cheaper homes?) - with good ventilation. Not to mention that the electricity for my area comes from a coal plant…

    Cook with what you want: gas, induction, a charcoal grill; idc.

      There was a report that gas stoves were linked to health issues. Then the culture war bullshit crowds pretended that meant “the nanny state is taking our gas stoves!!!”

      It was a handy distraction from everything else that everyone should’ve been focused on.
