Heating vegetable oil up so it turns into a polymer creates carcinogens. Why cast iron pans have a non stick surface.

Had to look it up. That claim is truish. However it is only a risk while seasoning and if you are inhaling the fumes.

Needless to say, don't do that and cast iron presents no risks.

At the end of the day, a really silly reason to swear off cast iron.
