Food Theory: Do NOT Eat NyQuil Chicken!

День тому

SUBSCRIBE for Every Tasty Theory! ►► bit.ly/2CdCooV
I can't believe I need to say this but DON'T EAT chicken cooked in NyQuil! Like Tide Pods and questionable Pink Sauce, there are things that are just not meant to be ingested. Today I'm going to explain why the NyQuil chicken challenge is dangerous and why we need to stop trying viral food hacks that we KNOW are bad for us just for the views. Safety first and let's dive in!

+1 to the OP. Matpat is doing what the news should have done. I'd go into more detail (already tried to), from an epidemiology and information systems design standpoint... but youtube shadowblocked the comment. Literally can't even talk about the underlying causes and mechanisms of problems like this here. In both cases though, the chicken and the blocked comment, the issue is that our information systems reward counterproductive things while punishing beneficial things.

Secondly, the blackout challenge wich based on the name itself screams danger. The challenge had people choking themselfs till you know they blackout and in some cases this challenge had been fatal for some. Lastly , the hot boiling water challenge had teens pouring hot boiling water on their sleeping friends. That can cause second or even third degree burns that can have an effect on your body for a long time.) And did the news ever cover that NO.

In short, I think it was one of the best classes I’ve taken simply because we spent 10-12 weeks looking at news sources and stories on our own, and just actually reading and analyzing them. It was all about being aware of what exactly the news was saying, as well as checking their sources and the context that either the stories or sources emerged from. This video reminded me exactly why that class was important, and why it’s critical to look at the sources and context of EVERY news story. And this is just a personal opinion, but I feel like some outlets just want more attention by showing crazy stories. (A Scathing hot take, I know.)

Media has always been about "clickbait" since the very beginning.

Let's be fair, here, though. The traditional media that MatPat talked about and showed in his video was entirely comedy pieces and Good Morning America daytime stuff. This wasn't real news discussing real events in detail, it was entirely entertainment stuff using "current events people are talking about". MatPat probably should've pointed out the difference in the video. Heck, I've seen some of those shows outright tell people not to use them as their main source of news, as they're meant for entertainment. Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending this kind of stuff, but it is important to note that these shows aren't held to the same journalistic standard as real reporting, and we shouldn't lump the two together.
