jessy_girl's junk food jamboree

It really is worth the trouble if, like my family, you used to deep fry everything. Tastes the same, maybe even a little better as it's fresher.
I don't deep fry anything. But I'm sure it will be a massive taste increase from just baking everything in the oven (and time saver) from what I've heard
 
It doesn't bother me. I can watch the Food Network all day long and not get hungry. It's just about discipline for me - it's a mind game. I eat crap on impulse, not because I am craving it. Does that make sense?

Yes makes sense! It's funny the different triggers for people, it's good to practice self control though.

Same with me. I can watch Master Chef or MKR without needing to eat, or with my healthy snacks. I don't deprive myself of anything, I just make allowances. Food is awesome and nothing is totally off limits, it's just portion size and knowing where to stop.

Just saw mention made of the Food Network. Does anyone watch Mystery Diners? I love it. Hilarious. I know that it's a bit fake but the earnestness of their attempts grabs me, as well as the mugging for the camera when they get caught out.
 
I want an air fryer. I'm just not sure if I would use it enough to justify both the price and the bench space.
We have one here. I'm not sold on it actually. It's ok. But dry frying in a pan doesn't seem SO VERY different to me. Possibly the air fryer is quicker. It's actually my flatmate's. She loves it.

I'm always shocked when at the end of the episode they said someone who is a complete idiot has secured employment elsewhere. The only time that didn't happen was this bike pizza delivery guy who get of his bike and do one of those tourist bike tours around the city whilst they ate the pizza

Yes, that always gets me too.

It the "cheaters" version of a food show.
Now they just have to combine spousal infidelity and food into a reality show.

Other way round. No we don't have hilarious misadventures together. We get along well though. Last night she introduced me to the you tube channel 'cooking with dog'. Very silly and you might like it. You never know.

i always pictured you as neat and tidy.

I am sooooo NOT neat and tidy. A few people would die laughing if they read that. That you (someone) thought that about me. Ooooooh no. Not neat and tidy. Although i will give you that underneath the chaos there is order. I will indeed have an Excellent filing system, whether books, clothes, cable, groceries, sorting system, (was weiss ich), whatever. And when I do actually tidy up/have TIME to tidy up properly everything will be sonic and span for a few days and I will be able to find Anything in the hits within two seconds. It's just that there will be 98% of days where the sorting system is lacking somewhat.

so u r messy like me.
 
Also recently tried the gravy chips at McDonald's, they are quite tasty but funnily enough taste like Maccas chips with gravy, nothing too fancy.
 
OMG I fear bad health, I have an addiction to saganaki, Greek fried gooey cheese with lemon, it is like cheese on toast without the bread.

And the rest of my diet is muffins, but gourmet ones, not the crap that tastes like a cake.

I forget when I last ate a proper meal.
 
Hotdogs tonight, nice ones, nice crunchy rolls, good quality dogs grilled a bit. Yummy. Might make another.
