it's a pan. stop posting.

OP posted a pot
>>7346500
Pots have two small handles on opposite sides.
Pots usually have two small handles located on opposite sides of the pot. Pans, on the other hand, tend to have just one long handle.

>The shape isn't the distinguishing feature, it's the handle
Hey check out this weird pan
I got your Pan right here
>>7346510
it's a pan. it might also be a pot, but it's definitely a pan.
>>7346514
>Pots usually have two small handles located on opposite sides of the pot
None of my pots have handles of either sort.
>>7346518
that pan is full of holes
is it a golf course pan or a high school girls' track team pan?
>>7346528
they're both pans.
>>7346523
Come to think of it, most of my pans don't either
>>7346533
that's a tin
>>7346537
But it's made from steel and teflon.
>>7346489
The only pan you'll ever need
>>7346543
What the fuck ...
No. Just no.
No way in hell that would be useful ever. Different heat for everything cooked.
Try scrambling that many eggs in that tiny spot. Cooking more than one egg at a time? Forget it.
Like Jesus Christ, that's as terrible invention. Just use more than one skillet/pan/pot/whatever.
>>7346489
Fucking right? This is pan
>>7346541
it's not tin
it's A tin
>>7346489
that is a saucepan
*pain
>>7346563
It's a bread pan.
"A Tin" is a box or can made of tin.

>I'm right, the rest of the world is wrong.
You're a fucking idiot, son.
>>7346659
Yes, it's a pan for sauces.
>Pronouncing it as "sawspan"
>Not "sorhspin"
according to a random internet post: if the height of the pan is more than 1/3 of the radius of the bottom, it's a pot

>>7346732
Radius or diameter?
>>7346742
RADIUS
h > (r/3)
>>7346746
That would turn a lot of frying pans into pots
>>7346714
>rest of the world
Literally no one on the face of the earth says "bread tin" for bread pan.
Bread tins were tin boxes in which bread was packaged and sold, or else a tin breadbox for keeping bread from going stale or getting eaten by mice.
>>7346560
No, anon, you are wrong. That is pain.
>tfw my roommate calls both pots
ITS A FUCKING PAN

Where's the erect phallus?
Is a kadhai a pot or a pan. Or a wok for that matter.

One handle. Pan. Two handles. Pot.
>>7347504
It's the type of handle, not the number.
>>7346489
Most people say "saucepan" unless there is absolutely no risk of confusion with a frying pan in the context.
>>7346489
it's a "sauce pan" to some
but i call it a pot cuz im smart
I call deep ones pots and shallow ones (frying/saute) pans.
Really though, it doesn't matter.
>>7346489
What do you call this and what country are you from?
I call it a pot and I'm from Canada.
>>7347589
>calling weed pot
literally autism: the thread
>>7347595
I used to call it weed, until it confused a friend and put he dandelions in my bong.
>saucepan
>frying pan
wew that was hard
>>7347671
How come saucepan is one word but frying pan is two words?
>>7347683
Because suffixes are awkward when placed in the middle of compound words.
