From what I hear, the vast majority of bakeware is already coated with a layer of Teflon, even if they don't explicitly say so. Glass and disposeable aluminum ones are the only ones I'm pretty sure don't have any Teflon.
However, I freely admit that I don't live up to that ideal myself. I feel it is enough of a hazard that a Teflon wok was the only thing Teflon I've bought in the last 5 years, and I don't plan to ever buy any more. But I don't feel it's enough of a hazard (with good practices such as always leaving a 5 minutes timer on) to throw out what I currently own. I am considering though, giving my old pots/pans to friends/family, or simply donating them to GoodWill or something. I don't believe in throwing things out though.
