Not sure about the cooking set and coffee maker, but aluminum is the third most abundant material on Earth. You probably breathe more aluminum than you cook into your food. You certainly get WAY more aluminum in some antacid tablets than even acidic food would put into your stomach from cooking on aluminum cookware.
Info on that.
I understand about the Teflon issue; Teflon itself isn't harmful to humans, as the molecule is large and inert IIRC, but the chemicals used to get Teflon to stick to pots and pans is pretty nasty. But that only become a problem if you get the temperature of the cookware above about 600F (again, IIRC) that that becomes a real issue though. The heat breaks down the chemical bonds of that adhere the Teflon to the metal. And those chemicals aren't the greatest thing to ingest repeatedly.
But if you look for the hard anodized aluminum sets, you should be fine. Mine clean up pretty easily too. Here's links to each:

Night time hikes through the forest with a quality flashlight is fun. Several modes from dim to turbo. Amazing how the forest wakes up when humans go to bed. (which includes mt. lions in ca)
Yes, mosquito repellent. Also, buy a tent for 4 or 6. Two person tent is way too small. Sleeping pads (thermarest are good) A Coleman type camp stove is nice to have, and a set of camp pots and pans. These particular ones are what I bought, and work really well. If you camp in an area that isn't picked clean of dead tree limbs, one of these comes in handy to cut up small stuff for fires. Get yourself a good camp knife like a Morakniv, and a good locking cooler to keep the trash panda's out.
