It hasn’t been mentioned and you make a good point – the issue I have with the liners, though, is that they’re plastic, and when you heat up plastic it can leach nasties into your food as well . . . I’m actually more inclined to use the suspect ceramic insert than to use the liners. But this is an oft-cited solution to the problem of the lead and if you’re comfortable using the liners, you should use ‘em. Happy to have you here!

I wonder if that would stop the lead leaching. (I know it helps with the messy cleanup and to keep my lid a bit tighter, so now I’m wondering if it’s helping with my health as well!)
