Ive been eating nothing but potatoes and sweet potatoes roasted with light olive oil in my airfryer for the last week.
If i keep doing this, am I going to get sick?

You've been meme'd my friend.

Light olive oil is simply another word for normal or refined olive oil. It's ideal for cooking with because it has a high smoke point.

I don't care if ive been memed. My airfryer is the best little contraption I have ever purchased. I use it so much that I wonder if it will just die on me suddenly.
And isn't cold pressed olive oil bad to cook at high heat with?
you're not stuck on mars, variety is the spice of life
>>7439012
Yes.
Sure, that kind of diet is deficient primarily in vitamin B12, calcium, zinc and selenium. Basically, if you add a side of beef with sour cream you'll have a complete diet.

light (also known as refined, or light tasting) olive oil is best to cook with at high temperatures because it has been refined (duh) which removes the impurities. The impurities cause it to smoke at lower temperatures.
Cold pressed olive oil (I believe) is just regular olive oil, which has a sort of low smoke point, therefore is not good for frying.
idk how the fuck the airfryer works though, but i'd stick to using light olive oil.

If you want to go real hard and pan sear the christ out of a steak, try avocado oil. It is expensive, but you can safely keep the heat on high for almost as long as you want.
A whole potato is almost nutritionally complete. Keep in mind that means "not dying" rather than "thriving." Leave the skin on and you are living the Irish famine diet.

>Leave the skin on and you are living the Irish famine diet.
The opposite actually, the Irish famine was a lack of potatoes to eat. Object lesson in how bad it is to rely on a monoculture for a food staple.
airfryers use a fan kinda like a convection oven
it uses way less oil to do the same job and gets the same maillard effect

I thought olive oil is like the only oil with a smoke point high enough to be usable in cooking unrefined?

>literally a toaster oven with a fan
How do people keep falling for these meme devices?
>>7439026
What's wrong with sweet potatoes, fucker?
Just add cheese.
>>7439012
Yes. You need some fat and protein, as well as zinc and magnesium. Try to work some spinach and eggs into your diet, maybe fried mushrooms.
