A chef explaining why air fryers are a scam on r/unpopularopinion
As a chef, itâs an insult to hear âair fryers are as good as fryingâ. Air fryers are fucking bullshit scams and are just convection ovens with an extra fan added.
Seriously, pan searing or regular baking will always be better. I swear to shit Jared if I hear you compare fried chicken to air fried chicken one more time Iâm gonna smack the gob out of you.
Edit: Iâm in danger, I never realized how deep the air fryer fandom goes. I will die on this hill
Edit2: Iâll never stop upvoting and loving you all but⌠but Iâm just gonna go cry about something totally different..
Edit3: i think id be a lot less upset if it was called an âextra air ovenâ as its a convection oven with extra fans.
Edit4: if I had a dollar for every comment âyou clearly donât own an air fryerâ Iâd be able to put it towards a new toaster oven.
Edit5: the chances of getting doxxed over kitchen appliances isnât high.. but never zero.
Edit6: apparently air fryers are taking my job? Sorry boys and girls, no more foi gras for the rich.
