    Did you scratch it? Let me guess, you used a metal fork or spatula.

    Either take care of the surface or get a nice cast iron. Possibly both.

      A cheap nonstick pan will keel over even if you exclusively touch it with soft cotton gloves.

      Non sticks are disposable. They will eventually degrade no matter the care.

      I use one small 8in for eggs abd the rest of my cooking it’s cast iron or steel.
