A. PTFE is a commonly used, non-stick coating for cookware, industrial and medical uses. Q. Will the PTFE coating scratch? A. Yes. Q. Is using PTFE harmful? A: We do not believe it is and we have been cooking our food in PTFE-coated pans for 30+ years. Q. Are there any dangers assocated with PFTE? A: At very high heat (> 540 degrees) poison gas can emit from PTFE, However, if the temperature of your brake-fast dog food bowl is at, or near, 540 degrees you have much more pressing issues at hand. Testimonials: Echo: I have not seen any of the regurgitation issues or burping that my dog had with his other bowl, and I am truly impressed with the performance- and the fact that the bowl does exactly what you say it does–Carey Y Conner: Hi, I cannot believe how great this bowl works. I too have a Doberman who can eat a bowl of kibble faster than a speeding bullet! But….. not any more with his new dish. I just love itl, No more regurgitation, or other problems associated with speed eating.
