Leaching isn't the worry with non-stick coatings, flaking is. Everyone's seen pans flake off teflon into food.

Teflon is very non-reactive and any small pieces you ingest should pass through unchanged pretty quickly. You likely ingest a lot more plastic from other sources.

On the other hand, visible flakes of plastic in my food are kind of a bummer.
