The Mechanical Fryer ouputs 2 items.
This happens, when the fryer contains more than one item.

Hi! this is intended behavior, it doesn't create extra items out of thin air, it just processes 2 at a time to speed up the frying process :)

unless you mean something else?

I forgot to add the important part...
the fluid is consumed, as it was one item, so it only takes half of the fluid it should take

good news, we have a fix in place, and will be shipped with next update :D

oh wow yeah you're right, I'll get onto that asap
