The Food and Drug Administration has issued an update advising consumers that cooking chicken in NyQuil is dangerous.

The warning, part of a broader FDA update published Thursday about "social media challenges," refers to a video posted at least a year ago in which a TikTok user fries two chicken breasts in the cold and flu medicine. In the video, which went viral but appears to have been taken down, the user flips the meat with a flatiron hair straightener.

"The challenge sounds silly and unappetizing — and it is. But it could also be very unsafe. Boiling a medication can make it much more concentrated and change its properties in other ways," the FDA said.
The TikTok video does not use the word "challenge," and it is unclear whether many people ever tried to cook chicken in NyQuil.

These fools don't understand that chicken is supposed to be cooked in Robitussin.

Have people gotten sick or died from it?

Tide pods was a thing too, but I've read nobody was actually eating them, it was just nonsense.

but if the antivaxxers are crazy enough to take cattle worming drugs for Covid protection, surely there must be some lunatics trying this.

that Tik Tok was invented to cull the herd.
