Viral Toaster Hack for Potato Waffles Sparks Debate Over Convenience vs. Safety

London, UK \u2013 A recent viral video by food creator Amy Sheppard has sparked widespread discussion online by demonstrating an unconventional method for cooking frozen potato waffles: using a toaster. The video, which has garnered over 1.6 million views, shows Sheppard placing frozen potato waffles directly into a standard toaster, resulting in crispy, golden-brown fries. She then prepares a simple garlic butter sauce to accompany them. Sheppard, known for her accessible recipes, stated in the video, "It was years before I discovered this...and it's a bit of a game changer! So if all you fancy for dinner is a plate of chips and you just can't face turning the oven or the airfryer on, you have got to try these!" She emphasized the unique texture of toaster-cooked waffles, describing them as "fluffy on the inside, with this crispy coating on the outside that is somehow different from regular chips." However, the hack has received mixed reactions from viewers. While many expressed surprise and enthusiasm, several comments raised concerns about potential safety hazards and damage to toasters. One user commented, "I did this and it ruined my toaster so had to get a new one. They are oily which ruins the inside of the toaster. So put in a toaster bag." Another shared a more alarming experience: "i put these in the toaster and they caught fire. i didn\u2019t realise there was water on them because they were frozen, and with the grease, it became a fire hazard. it\u2019s safer to defrost them first or use an air fryer instead." In addition to the cooking tip, Sheppard used the video to promote her new cookbook, "Easy 10," which features 100 dinner recipes using only ten everyday ingredients. "It's full of simple dinner ideas, using the ingredients that are already on our shopping list," she explained, encouraging viewers to find the link to order in her profile. The cookbook aims to provide easy, comforting meal solutions for busy households.
