LOL that's a fucking walnut.
Gas stoves are shitty though, they leak minute amounts of nasty shit leading to higher incidence of asthma and other respiratory issues.
nitrogen oxides (NOx), including nitrogen oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and formaldehyde (CH2O or HCHO), and unburned gas containing benzene aren’t anything you want to raise kids around.

So no, it's not going to turn your lungs into walnuts, but yeah, if you have the choice, it's probably better going with an electric stove.
