That doctors and others feel a need to issue warnings to the public about not copying stupid social media stunts, just about says it all how braindead of a society we have become.
Doctors are advising young people to think twice before they take part in a bizarre TikTok trend in which they cook chicken breasts in over-the-counter liquid cold and cough medicine.
Known as "NyQuil Chicken" or "Sleepy Chicken," the trend, which many chalk up to being a joke, has surfaced on various video platforms. In the videos, people place chicken breasts in a pan and pour the medicine over it, until it absorbs the liquid.

People were eating tide pods and trying to swallow cinnamon powder at one point. Ron White said it best years ago....you cant fix stupid.
Who was eating tide pods? These things get way exaggerated by fools who see something and dont understand that it isnt nearly as widespread as they are led to believe. A lot of these "trends" are straight hoaxes just meant to trick people into believing that they even exist when they dont.

The Tide pod trend was actually a popular one and yes it really happened enough that Tide put out warnings. I agree with your statement overall.
The whole Tide pod thing was overinflated. Of course, the company put out a warning about it — not because it actually "happened enough" but because it had become a viral narrative and their legal department felt it was prudent to issue a public warning.
This gets a little messy. By and large, the jokes about eating Tide Pods are just that: jokes. There are very few people “eating” Tide Pods; the people who are “eating” them are really just biting into them and spitting out the detergent. But, of course, when local-news anchors hear the phrase “eating Tide Pods,” it becomes fodder for nice parental-anxiety-inducing segments, and to young people that panic is incredibly funny (and search-term-friendly!), so then more people start “eating” laundry pods (or even just posting videos with those terms in the title). So idiocy begets idiocy in the worst possible “chicken and the egg” parable one could imagine
Disgusting! I can't imagine why anyone would want to do such a revolting thing.

I agree. The last thing I would want to high on would be Chicken a la Robitussin. Blech.
