Every morning my OH cooks eggs and sausage (veggie ones) and i Haaaaaate the smell is drives me insane to start my day smelling like fried food. Especially during the week when i am heading into the office stinking like eggs!

Aibu??* He doesnt think anyone else cares about clothes/ hair/ furnishings smelling like fried food daily

*obviously lighthearted its not really a major issue

You do not ‘stink of eggs’ because your husband fried an egg in the house.

Or a single induction plate.
I use one for cooking fried fresh fish.

Get an extractor fan or shut the kitchen door.

YANBU to hate the smell. YABU to imagine it makes you smell of fried food, though. Assuming you aren't hanging your clothes up in the kitchen, people will never suspect your husband's dirty fried egg secret.

Seems i am being a bit unreasonable then and maybe i should cut him some slack for the fried smell haha!

But i do like the idea of a single induction hob for fish @Jellyrols genius idea
