20 Non-Toxic Kitchen Utensils That Are Amazon Bestsellers, From $7

Just like your everyday cookware, investing in good, high-quality utensils are also a must. The food industry has flagged plastic and Teflon tools for good reason — they’re filled with “forever chemicals” and toxins that can end up in our foods. Gross. If you still have old cooking tools kicking around, it’s time to replace them with non-toxic utensils that are more durable, safe, and even stylish — and these finds all earned bestseller status.

Cooking tools like spoons, spatulas, whisks, and tongs are essential for everyday meal prep, and we compiled a list of the most popular, top-rated options you’ll actually use in the kitchen. They feature non-toxic materials like stainless steel, wood, and silicone that withstand high temperatures and won’t break down over time, like plastic does. Some bestsellers also scored highly in our real-world testing, getting the approval of shopping editors and Amazon shoppers alike. 

Best Amazon Bestselling Spatulas

Chances are, you use a spatula several times a week, making it one of the most utilized tools in your, well, toolbox. So if you’re still reaching for your toxic-riddled black spatula, you should 1)  toss it out and 2) upgrade it to one of these stellar options. Our picks below feature chef-approved materials and are backed by thousands of five-star ratings, so you know they’re worth checking out.

Spatulas are available in several shapes and sizes, so if you need to replace a few in your rolodex, opt for this 5-piece set. It comes with a spoon, a scraper, straight and more spatula styles to accommodate various cooking methods. And because they’re made with food-grade silicone, each piece withstands temperatures up to 600° F. 

Although this popular Misen find is technically a fish spatula, there’s no rule against using it for burgers, eggs, or brownies. The flexible stainless steel blades handle delicate foods with care (no breaking), however, this writer-loved find also has a silicone edging that prevents scraping your favorite cookware. 

Best Amazon Bestselling Whisks

A fork could never compare to a whisk when it comes to whipping up pancake batter, omelets, or salad dressings. Designed with several tines, these babies actually break up clumps and bumps to give you a smooth finish — but not all whisks are the same. We found classic stainless steel options as well as picks with unique designs, like this tested OXO whisk. 

Stainless steel whisks are wonderful tools, but if you want to take things up a notch, go with a silicone option, like this 2-piece set. The metal base has a silicone coating that won’t scratch your mixing bowl or make a ton of noise. Bonus: We love that batter won’t stick nearly as much to the silicone as it would to the O.G. metal style. 

There’s nothing better than finding a cooking tool that can perform more than one task. This 2-in-1 bestseller morphs from a balloon whisk that’s great for batters to a flat whisk, which is ideal for sauces or whipped cream. And since it has a foldable design, the whisk is easy to store away in a drawer.

Best Amazon Bestselling Cooking Spoon

There’s no question about it: Cooking spoons are one of the most versatile utensils in your kitchen. It’s why you’re using them often, and why it’s imperative to have one that’s non-toxic to prevent harmful plastics from infiltrating your meals. These silicone and wooden options work better and are more dependable while cooking over a hot stove. No melting or leached chemicals here!

The best wooden spoons are sturdy, comfortable in hand, and easy to control while mixing, stirring, or sautéing. This 6-piece bamboo set handles each task beautifully, thanks to the different shapes, long-handle design, and heat-resistant construction. We also like that they double as serving spoons for salads, saucy dishes, and more. 

This top-rated tool from Staub doesn’t look like your average cooking spoon, and that’s what gives it a certain edge. Instead of a rounded base, the multi-functional spoon has a more oval shape that’s great for soups, stews, meatballs, dressings, and more. The soft silicone design catches sauces hiding in the pot’s corners, and the semi-deep middle holds it all nicely. 

Best Amazon Bestselling Tongs

As one of our shopping editors put it, kitchen tongs are like a “natural extension of your hand,” and if you’ve ever used one, you understand the sentiment. They provide great control and are easy to use while flipping chicken on the grill, tossing salad ingredients, and mixing up pasta dishes. Our favorites feature stainless steel and silicone-tipped picks from KitchenAid, Gorilla Grip, and more — starting at $7.

Silicone kitchen tongs, like this writer-loved option from Gorilla Grip, are great for both outdoor grilling and indoor cooking. The soft, flexible tip won’t scratch nonstick cookware, and it can grab flaky fish pieces or homemade meatballs without breaking them. The tongs have more than 8,000 five-star ratings from shoppers who appreciate the sturdy design, locking mechanism, and dual sizes (it comes as a set). 

These extra-long tongs are ones you’ll reach for on repeat while cooking, grilling, and even cleaning. Yep, these 12-inch chef-approved tongs let you reach steaks over high heat (without searing your skin) and clean tight corners when you throw a rag over the “jaws.” Made from heavy-duty stainless steel, the tongs are designed to last, even if you use them every day, which you just might.
