Syndicated talk host Todd Starnes warned his listeners Tuesday that nothing good ever comes from watching TikTok.
Starnes was referring to a new challenge sweeping the platform called the “Nyquil Chicken Challenge.” The video prompted a press release from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warning users not to participate in the challenge.
“On Tik Tok all you have is lesbian and transgender schoolteachers and people who marinate chicken in Nyquil,” Starnes joked.
Starnes said the FDA has warned people that they could die if they marinate their chicken in the drug.
“The fact that some people think this is OK shows that our country is doomed currently,” said executive producer Grace Baker.
Starnes said he’s never seen anything like this.
“This is the nighttime, sniffing, sneezing, achy, stuffy medicine so you can rest better,” added Starnes. “For the record, if you want to do anything with chicken you have to marinate it in a lovely bath of buttermilk and hot sauce, you salt and pepper the chicken and then you put it in a cast iron skillet.”
“What’s next Sudafed Souffle? What about a Tylenol turnover?”
A recent TikTok trend involving Benadryl encouraged young users to drink an excess amount to produce a hallucinogenic effect.
