No matter where you turn, you seem to be inundated with organic food, fitness routines, and other healthy lifestyle choices. All fine and well. But every once in a while, there’s the urge to get in touch with your inner glutton. Live a little and enjoy the finer things in life. Here are a few items that are sure to make your physician or personal trainer cringe.
Deep Fat Fryer
Good cholesterol, bad cholesterol. Put all that aside for a moment and answer me this: When has deep frying something not seemed like a good idea? From tempura, to Wiener Schnitzel, to Fish and Chips, most cultures have mastered the art of creating delectable fried food choices. A deep fat fryer can add a welcome addition to any party, or create an array of delicious snacks to enjoy whilst watching your favourite club side play on Boxing Day.
Wine Fridge
Okay, so maybe wine isn’t the unhealthiest and most gluttonous beverage you could choose. And while most of us aren’t blessed with the space and money for a traditional wine cellar, a good wine fridge can easily fill this void. If you want to store both red and white wines, each of which has a different optimal drinking temperature, a dual zone fridge makes the most sense. Or you could opt for two small units, one for each type of vino. Either way, you will be assured that your best bottles are stored properly, and can be enjoyed the way they were intended to be.
Ice Cream Maker
It might not be something you crave in the winter time, but unless there is something innately wrong with you, you probably love a nice ice cream cone as much as the next person. Owning an ice cream maker is a must for any sweet tooth. First of all, it offers you the possibility to create a seemingly limitless array of new and unique flavours. The cycle times on most electric ice cream makers are relatively short (20-30 minutes), so fitting with our theme of gluttony, it is hardly an arduous task. Best of all, you can use an ice cream maker to create sorbets, frozen yogurt, and a laundry list of other cold treats.
