The FDA has been forced to issue a warning against a popular TikTok trend of, yes, cooking chicken in a frying pan of NyQuil...

If your first thoughts are...'what, how, and why is this reminiscient of the Tide Pod challenge'--you are correct.

So, if you could certainly appreciate a laugh (or a deep investigation) over the latest TikTok superfood that doesn't sound nearly as delicious as the viral feta pasta, here are the funniest tweets we could find about the phenomenon of sautéed NyQuil. Note: if your dinner is blue, you're doing it wrong.

When they told us to season our chicken, they did not mean with NyQuil, y’all.

This is disgusting. If you are cooking your chicken in NyQuil, we need to talk. The move is a reduce your NyQuil into a glaze and drizzle it atop the chicken. Heathens. https://t.co/KmKdrjIlg5

Humans: we just built a device that can use CO2 to generate oxygen on Mars

Also Humans: we need to be told not to cook chicken in NyQuil.

There are two types of Americans: those who need to be told not to cook their chicken in Nyquil and those who do not need to be told that.

NyQuil just released a warning for people not to cook chicken in NyQuil. Ummm… WHO THE FUCK IS COOKING CHICKEN IN NYQUIL?!?!

This is why America needs immigrants and people of color. Y'all are putting Nyquil on your chicken because you don't know about spices. Help us help you. Help us make your chicken delicious. You won't even get sleepy or dead, just a food coma.
