TikTok's interest in 'NyQuil chicken' increased 1,400% following the FDA's warning about the dangerous trend
"The FDA issued a statement imploring people to please stop boiling chicken in NyQuil on September 15, but the warning may have unintentionally stoked interest — and a 1,400% increase in searches — for the strange TikTok trend.
NyQuil chicken, which originally dates back to 2017 and the troll-happy message board 4chan, has been making the rounds again on TikTok and Twitter in recent weeks.
In its warning, the FDA mentioned a "social media video challenge" and warned against the risks of cooking chicken in the cough medicine. There have been no known hospitalizations or deaths from the recipe. However, consuming the #sleepychicken could cause liver damage and muscle breakdown — even inhaling the vapor could cause sickness, the FDA warned."
