LOL definitely reminded me of Dr. Seuss, no doubt ... well, my theory is that it's simply the iron interacting w/the oil & eggs (sulfur?) b/c the seasoning hasn't completed just yet ... i just restored a vintage Griswold skillet & it did the same thing ... i also suspect that it's related to the iron that was used, as well -- again, just a theory, but perhaps there are different "grades" of iron - ??? ironically, it's the higher grade (Griswold, Wagner, Blankenship) that's greening up vs. the supposedly lower grade stuff (Lodge & B'ham Stove) ...
