I’ve actually started to like it more than just frying stuff, because I personally don’t love a ton of grease in my food. I always find myself dabbing at stuff with napkins so it’s not soaking with oil, because that kind of ruins the crispiness of it sometimes when it’s SO wet. Then there’s that nauseating occurrence where the oil temp was too low and the thing is just…logged with oil, just saturated with it and it’s like a mouthfull of soggy grease.
It’s bugging me so I’m gonna ask to please stress that you should be eating HEALTHY fats and nuts with this diet. Avocados & avocado oil are good fats as well as olive oil. Bacon is not and never will be remotely healthy. Also, lean cuts of meats (especially red meats, which, really aren’t that great for you).
Same with the nuts- chia, flaxseed, almonds & cashews are some of the healthier nuts. You should still avoid pecans and macadamia nuts as they are the unhealthiest nuts. Walnuts and peanuts are also okay though nut butters are generally filled with sugars & unnecessary fats.
Meat in almost every form is pretty awful for you. Animal fat is especially terrible. Hours after you consume meat, your body initiates an inflammatory response.
Fats from plants are gr8 though, as long as you’re not consuming too many calories.
Sure didn’t say no to the fried chicken i had for dinner, or the mashed potatoes, or the mac n cheese.
Also I cook for a living, and make all three of these regularly, so you know it was good. And not healthy. Like really REALLY not healthy. But worth every bite.
