I don't know where OP lives but where I live... I call this "Paula Deen Syndrome". They are in the minority because most fats don't bother with cooking. The one I know IRL makes an incredible amount of fatty gross fried shit to share with everyone. I think it's a combination of fishing for compliments, trying to make everyone love it, and trying to get everyone as fat as it is. Maybe this one thinks it's bring healthy? Muh proteenz... who knows?
