Many of the current big names in cooking and the food industry are coming out with their own lines of special, personalized products - and with good reason too. There is huge demand for these products from a consumer base that is at times unwitting and at others downright mindless. People want utility in their lives, which means in other words they want happiness, and commercial products and goods have oftentimes come to be seen as a means to fulfill that need. We want the latest pots and pans because they are pretty, because our friend has them, because our favorite chef uses them or produces them, and as the saying goes, "The grass is always greener on the other side."
There are a number of problems with this picture, not the least of which is the fact that you're assigning control of your happiness to an arbitrary set of the latest pots and pans, which could fall in or out of style as the drop of a hat. Besides that though, is that realistically pots and pans are not something that are going to fulfill you for the rest of your natural life. Once that particular desire has been met, it's on to the next want, the next thing, the next must-have product that will change your life or at the very least make it so much more worthwhile, so much better than what it currently is.
The fact of the matter is that there's nothing special about any one set of pots and pans over another. Certainly some are better constructed, some are more attractive, and some are both, and these are the things that one should truly be evaluating when shopping for such an implement. The consideration should be on the suitability of the object for the task it is intended to perform, because when you boil it down to the base elements then that's the truth that remains: an object is only as good as the degree to which it performs well its intended function.
If you buy this latest set of cookware that has several flaws, or does or does not do something you don't particularly like, then you have now compromised the efficacy of your cooking tasks by buying into what amounts to no more than a clever marketing ploy. Some manufacturers certainly do take these things into consideration - they want you to buy their products because they ARE the best at what they do, and they DO offer the greatest value to you as an end consumer, and they DO believe you'll be wildly satisfied with the quality of your purchase. The question is, are these the one's you're thinking about buying?
