| This is a rather stupid post but I'm having trouble.
I have used one set of flame colored Le Creuset sauce pans for years (25?). I have replaced one in flame and need to replace 2 others (so I have one new saucepan and the original largest pot which is still good). I'm not sure I want flame anymore. But I'm not sure what other color to get either. Off white? Blue? Maybe red but probably not? And I'll still have my 2 flame unless I really splurge and buy all new and give those away (that would be a major splurge for me) I don't know why I'm having trouble with the idea of purposefully mixing up the colors seeing how I use non-stick frying pans but since they seem to be a seperate entity.....plus I'm not in a high end house/high end kichen. Strictly middle class. I do like trying to decorate and make the house look nice though I don't go overboard. Would you buy colors by whether food looks pleasing in them? I noticed the Barefoot Contessa was making soup in an off white Le Creuset pot and the soup looked yummy against the white.
And when I get really old I'll probably have to buy a stainless pot set of some kind anyway since the Le Creseut is practically too heavy to lift now! LOL! What would you do? |

| I would go for the white or black. "They" say that food looks most appetizing on a blue plate... My long time favorite dishes are an English red transfer ware....steak looks great but a plate of spaghetti looks awful! Over the years I have bought Le Cruset when I have found a deal...so I have and have had most colors but the newer green ones. Hands down....the food looks better in the white.  However, most Le C pans now have a white interior...so unless you are taking pictures of your spaghetti and meat balls....who cares? Boy am I a messy cook!! Linda C |

| And while the food looked great in them and in her kitchen, when I imagine using the all white ones they seem like the look rather bland on the stove. I think they would carry nicely to the table. Can't do black, my eyes aren't that great, especially in low light, anything black always seem to make things hard to see. I they weren't so expensive it wouldn't be such a hard decision. |
