    I'm not sure how you can "fry" with air.  There has to be some kind of oil involved although I think the idea is that you need less oil in an air fryer.  Two years from now, the scientists will say that air frying causes cancer.

    Waterless cookware of yesteryear.  They were simply SS pots and pans.

    Not cooking methods, diet choices would be a better question.

    Look at portion size.  Am Stateside for 5 days and the portion sizes are huge. Just ordered a Burger, the patty was 10 OZ,  Four (4) Oz is more than enough.  US food servings could feed a family of 4 off of one plate.

    Look at the chemicals in foods Stateside 80% of the are banned in the EU. 

    Look at how grapes are picked in the US as opposed to the EU.  Sulfates can you spell them  Have you ever had a sitting hangover from wine, you were probably drinking Californian or Australian wines picked automatically using Sufide chemicals in the automatic pickers

    Randy do not get me started on the Greedy Profiteering by US based enterprises.  Can you say all hail Wall Street and the Best Congress they can buy?

    NG I do live in the EU tell me about it.  What I can get at the Spat is banned in the US - think Wild Schein, Hirsch etc. Teh products in the US I feel 705 of them would not be allowed , Thank God.  Only 50% of US products pass the Bio designation, GMO's are not allowed (thank god)
