People are Saying This Is The New Air Fryer

People are Saying This Is The New Air Fryer
Jun 28 2024 Share

Air fryers have been the biggest rage for a while , but people have been since then talking about an alternative to this popular kitchen gadget.

Introducing the Halogen Oven:

This innovative device utilizes a halogen lightbulb to cook food within a small glass bowl positioned behind it.

Typically, the halogen oven consists of  a protective basket on the outside to prevent burns, encasing the glass bowl. Above this setup is the halogen bulb, which activates the temperature rising high enough for cooking. To maintain the desired temperature, the bulb may flash on and off intermittently.

Some models offer temperature ranges from 60°C to around 240°C (140°F to 464°F).

This device has been suggested to be a cheaper alternative to the air fryers. Whilst the air fryer is popular, the most expensive models can start to get a little pricey which undermines their status as a budget item.

Several People Believed To Being Connected to Matthew Perry’s Death

Several People Believed To Being Connected to Matthew Perry's Death

Authorities are coming to a close about the criminal investigation into the passing of Matthew Perry, and according to law enforcement sources, they believes that several people might be connected to his death.

Last May, Los Angeles police reported that they were working alongside the Drug Enforcement Administration and had an ‘open investigation’ into the source of Perry’s ketamine  overdose following his death at his own home on  October 28th.

Perry had been open about his past drug use but had reportedly been clean for 19 months, the medical examiner’s  report said. He reportedly was receiving ketamine infusion therapy to treat depression and anxiety, with his last treatment being 1½ weeks before he passed, the coroner said.

The autopsy listed drowning, coronary artery disease and buprenorphine effects as contributing factors not related to the immediate cause of death. The manner of death was ruled an accident.

The coroner also stated that the levels of ketamine still in Perry’s body were high, around what is used for general anaesthesia during surgery. The coroner said it was unclear why the drug would still be in his system, because it metabolizes within hours.

This case is still under investigation by the Los Angeles Police.
