Can cooking with burnt pans be harmful to the body?

Question

ok see i live with my best friend and we both have very different cookings now she cooks with burnt pans and says that it gets the flavor in more or something of that fact to her im just wondering if its ok and not harmful to do that

Answer 1

Just give them a scrub when shes not looking if your that concerned. I myself dont like the taste of burnt crusty stuff and if she heats the pan first before cooking im sure it will kill any possible bacteria

Answer 2

yes it can be especially if it has dried up bacteria on there just throw them out and get new ones
