Induction is better than electric but it isn’t as good as gas in my opinion. You can’t use copper cookware, you are very limited on how you apply heat, you can’t use techniques like flambé, you can’t hold food directly over a flame to singe like you can with gas, etc.

Induction is fine for some people but not for everyone. Not to mention in many places they are more expensive to buy and operate. Besides, venting your stove makes gas perfectly safe. The process of cooking creates more harmful gasses anyhow. Burning toast will freak any monitor out.

Just use a portable stove for those rare occasions you need one for a specific technique. Why breath in those nasty gases when making something simple for dinner?

Using gas for occasionally singing or igniting a flambé is absolute overkill. Just get one of those small kitchen burners.

> venting your stove makes gas perfectly safe

That's what the gas industry has been telling you, just like the tobacco industry told us it was safe.
