Hot water from the tap, do you use it to cook?

Many say to never do this, many people say it’s ok.
You are making a pot of pasta. Do you fill the pot with hot water from the tap to speed it up, or just cold water?
I do not do it, MrsAntiqueTiger does.

This might be the dumbest post on this board.

you're more likely to have junk in your hot water coming from deterioration of your hot water heater tank.
That being said, I still use hot water when boiling bc I'm impatient

Cold water.
I had a science teacher in high school that said cold water would boil faster, no idea of the science behind this and I never tested it.

Fridge filtered water, bring to a boil, drop pasta, cover, cut heat.
oh, and stir a couple times in between.

I only use bottled water from the purest natural springs in Finland for all of my cooking. Y'all don't?

Having a little iron in your diet never hurts.

If you are in an old home that may have lead pipes, hot water can leach lead from the pipes. Well, that's what the internet says at least.
I'm in an old home so I do not cook with hot water from the tap.

I’ve never even considered it. I just lift the lever on and use water

I use hot water for sous vide because it comes out faster than the circulator can heat it from cold.
I don't do it when boiling something.
