I understand that was one of the main reasons why it was so hard to get them to put the warnings into their products. If they put in the warnings about bird poisionings, it could open them up to other possible lawsuits (many of which would be fraudulent) and it could also cut into their sales due to the consumers fears about those warnings.
The exact chemical responsible is called: polytetrafluoroethylene
I don't know why they come up with such a small word for it, I guess that is why most people call it Teflon!
If you do an internet search, using a search engine with polytetrafluoroethylene poisioning you will get a lot of other info on it.
