Netizens shocked by clip
The clip has since garnered more than 360,000 views and 7,000 likes at the time of writing, along with thousands of comments from netizens.
Needless to say, some were unnerved by the sight of the TikToker enjoying the raw chicken liver and expressed concern for the health risks it posed.
“I though we can’t eat raw chicken because it has parasites?”
“I can’t even stand the smell of raw chicken but yet she’s able to eat its liver raw.”
One netizen asked the woman whether the raw chicken liver was truly delicious, to which she replied, “It is. I’m not lying to you.”
Is it safe to eat?
While raw chicken is considered to be a delicacy in certain countries such as Japan, the potential health risks that it carries cannot be ignored as well.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a U.S. federal agency under the Department of Health and Human Services, has stated explicitly that consuming raw chicken can lead to food poisoning.
“If you eat undercooked chicken, you can get a foodborne illness, also called food poisoning. You can also get sick if you eat other foods or beverages that are contaminated by raw chicken or its juices,” it wrote.
So if you’re planning to eat any kind of meat raw, take note that you’re doing so at your own risk!
