25. Old Cookware
We bet you can find a big pile of old, outdated cookware lying around the house once you take time to clean up. However, they wouldn't make a good option for donations either. Most old cookware is often chipped or scratched. As a result, they can contaminate the food that you're making. Besides, during the cooking process, harmful chemicals can also be released, especially if that cookware is Teflon or nonstick. If they are worn down or scratched, just throw it away.
