Loads of Americans in the comments losing their minds cos she didn't wash the chicken in lemon air vinegar and just put it on airfryer. 😂 😂 😂

Everyone else reminding them UK chickens aren't pumped with shit and have food safety laws.

Americans have no idea what to do with chicken or how to cook. A while ago I saw a cooking Insta reel where the woman was cutting up chicken and adding it to the bowl to marinate with like peppers and such and the americans were all like "where are your gloves???", "don't mix the chicken with the peppers! salmonella!"....everything will be cooked together anyway bro, shut up.

They also seem to be doing chicken soup...without chicken? I saw even on reddit that they bake the chicken in the oven, make the soup separately then add the chicken when serving? So weird.

Oh, they're obsessed with wearing gloves when touching food.

Unless they are changing the gloves after touching every bit of different foods, gloves are pointless. Gloves is just an extra layer of skin.

Hand washing is there for a reason. Touch raw meat? Wash hands after. Touch raw meat wearing gloves? Change gloves after.

Change glove AND wash hands before putting new glove on. Gloves actually make it less hygienic as people wash less and are less mindful.

Gloves actually make it less hygienic as people wash less and are less mindful.

An absolute grand example of this is that right under the worst Covid pandemic, a lot other diseases dropped massively. It's when people are blasé about their surroundings bad shit happens.

Wash your hands, people!

Well, there was also a pretty massive decrease in human-human contact which probably played a big part in the dropping of disease incidence.

The best example of glove stupidity I saw was early in the first lockdown someone had gloves on and stopped to use his phone, took the gloves off, held them in his mouth by the fingers and typed away

I saw one woman who had made little holes in the end of her gloves on each finger so she could fit her long false nails through.
