Fundamentally this is correct but the air fryer is still worth it, and many models are less than $100.Your Air Fryer Is Just a Little Oven That Blows

The air fryer is a mini oven which is very efficient in terms of time to warm up and electricity used compared to a normal oven.
The air movement allows the food to cook quicker and distributes the heat more effectively.
Air fryers are great for small portions and/or for single meals and often works better than a microwave to re-heat certain foods (but does take longer).
I use mine a lot in the hot summer when one doesn't really want the oven to heat up the home.

Just go for a basic air fryer, no need for these fancy large units.
I actually have 2 air fryers, but be sure to get one with a basket in the basket as this makes it much more user friendly.
My "Chefman" just has a grill on the bottom of the main basket which makes it difficult to remove foods such as French fries
I love my new Ninja Foodi without the pressure lid. It's all built into the new lid.

I wish i bought that one.
More for the probe. The lids are annoying but not a dealbreaker

I'm liking the Gotham steel basket. I have an air frying mode in my oven along with convection roast and bake.

Traditional smoked mackerel. I’ve seen happier fish but I appreciate its sacrifice.
Bun with raw herring and raw onions. Haven’t had that in like 4 decades. Not going to change that, it’s for the wife.
And last but not least, a family bag of cod:
Speaking of sacrifices… some of the many fishermen who never came home:

I love mine, it’s hard to go wrong with any ninja product.
Oh that family basket of cod looks heavenly. It's so lovely there.

After 3:30 snacks just don't have the same ring as midnight but OH well...
The sardines label said 5 servings but it sure tasted like ONE to me.
I'm not that much a fan of tomato sauce but with a little Frank's I'm liking it...
Anyone think I should have grabbed more than three 23 Oz bottles of Franky's for 99¢ a pop?
I'ma try to find more next jaunt to the Amish folks across the way.
Pooched up nicely after that, though...lol

The cod does look much more delicious than the smoked mackerel and/or raw herring.

I got a 12 pack off amz for real cheap doing their S&S but cancelled after they went up too much, the ones with peppers and they didn't last long, low carb lower carbon footprint and I have liked em since I was a little kid - yum.
They were a super bargain @ less than $9.
That'll learn em PDQ and maybe cure them of being a dirtbag lol!
