      Oh, I’m not advocating McDonalds breakfast, but I remember them taking like 20 minutes in the oven. I’m not a morning person, so I do not plan my breakfast 20 minutes ahead, lol.

          Yeah, I’m not sure why I struck such a nerve, lol. I just got frustrated because I’m not a morning person, and hashbrowns eggs and bacon take forever! And I can’t get the timing lined up, since I’m half awake, so screw it. Bagel and coffee.

            Air fryer for the win. Think of it like your microwave: pop the food in, set the timer or use a program, wait for DING! It’s not just faster than regular oven but no preheating and more automated so it’s easier

        Air fryer cuts it in half.

        Can I shit on air fryers for a second though.

        How did everyone just accept this horrible example of marketing and branding nonsense? I literally had relatives explaining it to me like it was a magical new way of cooking just invented.

        Its a fucking tiny convection oven.

          1. Doesn’t have to be tiny - there are go full sized
          2. More convection than convection. While there’s not a clear definition of either, companies that do both distinguish them by windiness
          3. Many countertop models don’t need pre-heating!
          4. More automated, no need to think. Just press a few buttons and wait for the ding, like a microwave.

            I love your use of windiness. I will concede that point purely because it made me laugh and it made sense at the same time.

            I’ll pushback on the preheat though, we just got a microwave air fryer combo (awesome saving space) and while it heats up super quick, still have to add a few minutes for preheat.

            Kinda like the difference in boot time from HDD to NVMe.
