[–] rwrwefwef@sh.itjust.works -2 points 3 months ago (5 children) Most stoves in North America are electric/inductive anyway. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] anvilskinner@sh.itjust.works 7 points 3 months ago* (4 children) Anecdotally I see gas burning stoves a lot still in NA. I think there’s a culture that they’re “better” than resistive or induction stoves. Though that could just be local to my region, I’d have to look at the stats. Edit: According to https://us.fotileglobal.com/pages/kitchen-stove-and-appliance-statistics So yea looks like majority is electric, still quite a few with gas though. Electric stoves now outnumber gas in U.S. households. Approximately 68% of homes cook with electricity, while 38% still use natural gas. In southern and midwestern states, electric stove usage often surpasses 70%, peaking at 90% in North Carolina. However, gas stoves remain popular in places like California, Illinois, and New Jersey, reflecting how local infrastructure and utility prices shape cooking preferences. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] BorgDrone@feddit.nl 1 point 3 months ago (3 children) Induction is great, but resistive electric stoves are practically unusable permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] anvilskinner@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 months ago (2 children) I mean I don’t agree with that. I’ve majority used resistive stoves my entire life and I think once you get used to the fact that it’s takes time to adjust heat, you get used to it. But yea I’d much prefer induction if I could have it. I have an induction wok thing and cooking with that is great, instantly getting different heat levels is nice. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] BorgDrone@feddit.nl 2 points 3 months ago (1 child) I learned to cook on a resistive stove as a kid and it sucked donkey balls. Cooking on gas when I moved out for college was such a revelation. Induction is even faster as long as you don’t get an induction hob with those stupid touch-screen controls. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] anvilskinner@sh.itjust.works 1 point 3 months ago True, does seem the style to couple induction with a touchscreen because “futuristic”. permalink fedilink source parent
