When I Cook With My Iron Cast Skillet, Particles From The Pan Enter The Food. Why?

Ebay Listings for antique cast iron skillets:

If I scramble eggs in the iron cast skillet, little black particles end up in the eggs. Is it just too old? "1890" is stamped on the bottom of the pan. I'm not sure if that is when it was made since I purchased it at a second hand store.

Cast Iron Grilling Pan – Instruction Is Not To Use Steel Wool To Clean. Does It Mean Scrubbing Sponge Is Fine?

Hi, what is that standard (usually green) Scrubbing Sponge made of?
Is it OK to use a Scrubbing Sponge to clean a cast iron pan or is it like
steel wool which I have instructions saying should not be used? THANKS.
