Do air fryers make food taste good? I read they are horrible... my Dad has been considering getting one though... any tips for us to get good taste out of it?

It taste fine to me, it is a very convenient way to cook fries, nuggets and hotdogs. I don't like my food greasy so it is good to me. I love using the air fryer to heat up food vs a normal oven. Like the other commentator is air fryer is basically a convection oven. They use hot heated air to cook food but unlike an oven, air fryer is a forced convection where they use a fan to blow the hot air on the food.
It maybe a matter of taste here air fryer makes food rather dry and food with oil it would remove quite a number of oil from it when you cook for it. Oiless fries taste ok for me since I dip them in sauces and with it being dry it absorb sauces well, eaten by itself for fries would be a bit bland. Yeah a good tip for it to be dry is to add a little oil into your food, the air fryer would do it thing blowing the access oil out when its cooked.

Holy crap, they were serious about this LOL
Also, I take my hat off to @Raevenlord 's writing of this news, it just made the whole thing even funnier for me

Thank you very much, we aim to please! I felt the same way while going through some of these comments, our community is top notch on the chicken-wing jokes :roll:

There are also those of us who can't have sugar and have to drink diet if we want a soda.

Sadly, yes. I thought it was implied. My statement still stands, though.

This is marketed as a console. But the question will be what games will this console have? What good is a console with no games? If it is just a regular PC, I am not sure I will want to buy a KFC branded one though. Lol.

I would say It's just cluck-bait but the thing is for real.

Octavean · Dec 23, 2020

You just take one look at the thing and you can‘t help but think,......”what the cluck,...?”.

DeathtoGnomes · Dec 23, 2020

IDK if anyone else remembers EverQuest (1) and the /pizza command....

Tartaros · Dec 23, 2020

I, for once, welcome our new pc master race overlords if they do an app to instantly order fried chicken in the midst of a heated gaming session.

I think my calender is bugged, it says it's not April Fool's

In Spain it's december 28th. Still 6 days away, so it would seem this is really true.

Caring1 · Dec 23, 2020

If KFC can do this, why not other fast foods.
Just don't make a pink Taco version please.

Mussels · Dec 24, 2020

This is going to include a GPU that has high res, high refresh 2D output and then tell you to stream with Geforce now

300BaudBob · Dec 24, 2020

Does it come with Angry birds?

You know, there are some things that would tempt me...a console like Bender's head or Firefly or heck even a Gigantor might be tempting... but a bucket of greasy chicken? No thanks if I want to be nauseated I'll just pick up a game with lots of blood and gore

Disgusting, dry mess.

A standard oven does it better in every way. But yes, you do have to check your times and temps properly, an Airfryer does that for you... but yeah. Its so mindnumblingly boring whatever comes out of it, might as well eat some paper and put sauce on it.

People who are too lazy to even drive to the cafeteria nearby for fries buy this and tell the world how great and 'healthy' it is. Meanwhile, oven fries have been available for many years and still taste better, if frying's too much fat for your taste. Gotta say I like them out of the oven better.

We always cook our fries in the oven, and yeah they are pretty good that way I agree. No bad oils, etc. It's the way to go

Most people are not vegan and don't want to be..

Mussels · Dec 25, 2020

i totally cook all our food in the oven, tastes heaps better than an air fryer

KFConsole may add flavour from the tears of your enemies

Not liking greasy. chicken, or not wanting to be reminded of it everytime one plays a game, is not exclusive to vegans.
