Where did the recent air fryer trend come from anyway? (startrek.website)

There is a good reason why they're popular, but it's mostly due to the foodie trend. You can cook one meal for one in an air fryer, or like two dozen meals for one in an oven (meal prep, divide, freeze).

It's mostly a microwave for crispy foods. I do more re-heating than anything else.

air fryers are machines for heating up frozen french fries, and as an added bonus they can do other things too!
