It's exactly the same as pan/deep frying, food is coated with and
absorbs oil, especially breaded/battered foods. The fallicy lies in
the fact that it makes frying easy so encourages eating much more
fried food. The only savings is not needing a deep fryer so air
frying is *safer* and no used oil needs to be stored... however the
caloric content from fat is precisely the same as pan/deep frying when
food is drained on paper towels.

Demonstrating your ignorance... no oil is used in air poppers.... and
in all the years you've been at RFC your dense skull has absorbed
absolutely nothing regarding culinary data, you obviously haven't a
clue why popping corn pops. Mayhaps were you not so intent on
attempting to denigrate others you'd learn how to cook... posting
pictures of take-out is NOT cooking... that's exactly the same as
posting URLs for recipes with pictures lifted off the net and thinking
anyone with functioning brain cells believes they cooked that. I've
seen pictures of the pittifully few things you actually cooked, you
should be very embarrassed/ashamed of how badly you trashed perfectly
good ingredients.
