From Wednesday, 2nd September, Aldi stores will start offering a Dual Air Fryer, sold under the Ambiano brand. The appliance is advertised in the supermarket chain's promotional flyer for €59.99, a price that represents a 25% discount compared to the previous price of €79.99.
The appliance features two separate baskets, each with a capacity of four litres, totalling eight litres of combined capacity. This configuration allows you to prepare different types of food in separate compartments, avoiding the mixing of flavours and ingredients.
Among the technical features, the highlights are 2600 W of power and 10 different cooking programmes. The digital panel located on the upper front part of the appliance allows you to access and adjust the operating settings in a practical way.
Air fryers, also known as air fryers, cook food through the rapid circulation of heated air inside the appliance. This system allows you to prepare foods such as potatoes, vegetables or meat using little or no additional oil, working similarly to a small convection oven.
A partir de quarta-feira, 2 de setembro, as lojas Aldi passam a ter disponível uma Fritadeira Dupla de Ar Quente, segundo a informação apresentada no folheto promocional da cadeia de supermercados. O equipamento surge anunciado por 59,99€ por unidade.
A Fritadeira Dupla de Ar Quente é comercializada sob a marca Ambiano e apresenta um formato com dois cestos separados, cada um com capacidade para quatro litros. Desta forma, a capacidade conjunta dos dois compartimentos chega aos oito litros.
Dois cestos e 10 programas de cozedura
Entre as características indicadas pelo Aldi encontra-se uma potência de 2600 W, bem como 10 programas de cozedura diferentes. Na imagem promocional é ainda possível observar um painel digital na parte frontal superior do aparelho, através do qual são apresentadas as definições de funcionamento.
A presença de dois cestos permite distribuir os alimentos por compartimentos distintos, uma característica comum nas fritadeiras de ar de maior capacidade e que pode ser útil quando se pretende preparar diferentes tipos de alimentos sem os colocar no mesmo recipiente.
O folheto indica ainda que a Fritadeira Dupla de Ar Quente custa 59,99€ , valor apresentado com uma redução de 25% face aos 79,99€ assinalados como preço anterior.

Como funciona uma fritadeira de ar quente
As chamadas air fryers, ou fritadeiras de ar quente, cozinham os alimentos através da circulação rápida de ar aquecido no interior do aparelho. Este sistema permite preparar alimentos como batatas, legumes, carne ou outros produtos utilizando, em muitos casos, pouco ou nenhum óleo adicional, dependendo da receita e do alimento.
Além de cozinhar, estes equipamentos são habitualmente utilizados para aquecer ou tornar novamente crocantes determinados alimentos, funcionando de forma semelhante a um pequeno forno de convecção.
An episode of the BBC podcast "A History of the United States in 100 Objects" tells how the standardization of screws changed the balance of world power. In the 1920s, the United States faced a chaos of incompatible standards, until Herbert Hoover, later president of the country, dreamed of a universal thread. This decision to standardize screws transformed American industry and contributed to US economic domination on the world stage.
The restrictive immigration policies adopted in the United States are deeply affecting the fast food industry, with customer traffic declining in almost every month of 2025 and 2026. According to the Financial Times and the Brookings Institution, net immigration was negative for the first time in at least half a century, with nearly three million people leaving the country. This data is particularly relevant for the sector since 35% of Hispanics in the US consume fast food daily. Companies like McDonald's, Wendy's and Subway have already started adjusting their expansion plans, with the burger chain slowing new openings and the other two closing hundreds of establishments. Jack in the Box and Wingstop also attributed the sales decline to reduced consumption among Latino customers, suggesting that part of the industry may have bet on population growth that is no longer occurring.
This opinion article by the director of Marketing, Communication & Sustainability at Soja de Portugal analyzes the lack of exploitation of the beach theme as a strategic element in Portuguese marketing. Lídia Moreira argues that, although Portugal is known for its beaches and coastal tourism, national brands do not sufficiently use this cultural and identity added value in their communication campaigns, wasting an opportunity for differentiation and emotional connection with consumers.
The president of the Regional Government of Madeira, Miguel Albuquerque, reiterated that golf is the main bet to boost tourism in Porto Santo during the low season. The statements were made on the sidelines of the inauguration of the first Frutimade store, a fruit and vegetable company, at Penedo, on the island of Porto Santo.
