Although that said.... my mom and nan always had a special pan for boilng eggs because they reckoned toxins came out of the shells when you boiled them and impregnated the pan so you couldn't use it for other food. i've never been able to find concrete evidence for this belief and I figure if it were true (a) it would be widely known and (b) Paula Deen and Martha Stewart would include egg pans in their product ranges.
