Hey Bella! For seniors with wide feet & comfort & safety usually come down to a roomy fit up front and solid traction underfoot, & a shoe that does not weigh him down. Look for a true extra wide toe box, and a rubber outsole with real tread that channels water so he does not slip on wet sidewalks. I had good luck with Wide Toe for my dad. The outsole is non slip on damp pavement and the toe box comes extra wide, so his forefoot can splay without pressure. They feel airy and flexible rather than heavy, which helps with longer walks. The look is pretty simple and the knit upper is not very water resistant, but the grip and comfort have held up well for everyday use.
I had better luck once I treated the fryer like a tiny oven tray... A little water in the bottom so drips have someplace cooler to land, a piece of bread to act like a sponge, and parchment with holes to keep fat from misting up into the heater, and That trio changed everything for me.
If you still get smoke, lower the heat and extend the time, and empty the drawer once during the cook. The bacon does not mind the pause and your alarm will.
