You do not want that shit in your home.

is it actually that bad? my parents have gas and I LOVE cooking with it. I'm not defending it i'm just genuinely curious how hazardous it is and why.

Another video to add onto the pile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hX2aZUav-54

A small anecdote from an outsider - here in Sweden, gas stoves are more or less unheard of, as is using gas for heating homes or water. One of the things I kept reading occasionally on the internet was people trying to sell me on the importance of owning a CO monitor. This was always strange to me as these basically are not a thing here in Sweden. It took me a long time to connect these two facts together - there is no need for us to own CO monitors, because we never even expose ourselves to the risk of CO poisoning by not burning gas in our homes.

Apart from that, induction is just so amazing to cook on that there's really no way that exposing yourselves to the reduced air quality + risk of CO poisoning + always having a source of emissions when cooking can be worth the feeling of cooking on a gas stove. There's just no way.
