I was gonna say look at godzilla, but at this point, I don't know which chemical mutated the thing.
This is the response from Rufus (Amazon's AI chat bot):
The product information indicates that the inner liner of the Zojirushi Hybrid Water Boiler & Warmer has a non-stick coating containing PTFE, which is a material commonly used for non-stick coating in cookware and is FDA approved.

"PTFE can degrade and release potentially harmful fumes when overheated, above 260°C (500°F). This degradation can also lead to the release of microplastics and PTFE particles into food, especially from damaged or scratched cookware."

Is 500 degree water necessary for proper black tea or matcha?

We only use glass, stainless, carbon steel, cast iron in the kitchen, besides "fiesta" dishes. We never eat anything with an ingredients label of more than 3, and rarely eat out unless seed oil free. Only drink purified well water.
But zojirushi water boilers, and rice cooker are the only exceptions we make. Water only reaches 212 degrees max, and we've never seen any peeling or flaking in many years of use. I wish it was stainless, but the convenience out weighs eating out and eating processed foods. Choose your battle.
edit: I lied, we use a silicone spoon in the rice cooker to avoid scratching. Also, soak it in water before washing, dried rice and the included spoon will scratch it.
Otherwise I agree, avoid seed oils, plastics, processed foods, ptfe, enjoy the sun and exercise.
... And get the ones made in Japan

I've tried a bunch of cheaper brands on amazon. They seem to last a couple years at most before the electronic dispenser malfunctions or the internal tank rusts and springs a leak. The zoji is priced at a premium but it's outlasted the cheaper ones many times over.
