They are great conductors of heat as well and fluctuate in temperature with the addition of cold food. Copper cookware is also very popular for some cooks. Copper conducts heat much better and more evenly than stainless steel, so copper pots and pans offer better cooking evenness than stainless steel alone. However, copper is reactive with acids found in food, so they must be lined with a material such as stainless steel to be safe for cooking.
