Based on comments I'm not sure if this is bad or good for seasoning?
Not OP but I believe OP is showing this as a bad thing. Mom has been incorrectly cleaning the pan so the patina is all gone. The patina is part of what makes cast iron so good to cook with and takes a lot of time or some effort to build up. So itβs sort of like getting something nice and trashing it.
