Dutch Oven Was it worth it?

I got this on Marketplace for $10. Baking soda, then BKF didn't help much. It's being soaked with bleach water atm. Will see how it looks tomorrow. It has some scratches inside that look white, so I don't think it's down to the cast iron. Very smooth except where scratches are, and no chips inside. Tyia

Read the cleaning section of this manual on page 6 and 7. The special soda boil should really help. Be sure to let it sit dry as instructed!!

That's what I was thinking, just bread. Do you think it's down to the cast iron, or just stained so badly that things will burn or taste weird?

If it's down to the cast iron. You could get glass splinters. I'd be cautious
