I like fried food very much, almost everything fried I love them. I know that consuming many fried foods are not good for our health, so I try to reduce the consumption. But sometimes, just sometimes I have a day where I eat more fried food =) How about you?

I love fried foods too, but I abstain from them as much as possible on health grounds. Fried foods taste better. I'm missing a lot of food fun.

For the health sake, there's nothing much we can do for things that we like to do, like eating. I'm sorry. But thanks.

If you love fried foods, make them them an occasional treat, not everyday fare.Order your deep-fried foods at better restaurants and ask whether they start with fresh potatoes or other foods, not frozen;and fry in liquid oil,not Crisco.(Frozen french fries and other frozen foods for frying virtually always contain partially hydrogenated oils.)The most healthful diet includes plenty of fruits,vegetables,whole grains, beans and other seeds,steamed or cooked in liquid,or eaten raw.

Why not use the chinese way, fry your food with a little water and when it is ready, you can pour cold pressed oil on. In this way you avoid the heated fats that are very bad for health. Or use a little real butter and don“t fry too hard and then put on the oil afterwards when the food is cooler. These are two ways I have used after learning about heating fats and what happens to them in the frying pan.

But how to fry food with water? Will the food be cooked well?

I love fried food. Okay I know, it's not healthy. But I can't help it. The taste, the smell. Like you I tried to avoid friend foods but I can't help it. It is really tempting. I just hope that my mom, the family cook, will cook less fried foods so that I'll have a reason not to eat friend foods.

I'll do the same if I were you.
