Experts issue strong warning over TikTok’s ‘think drink’ trend

A doctor has criticised the popular TikTok trend called “Think Drinks”.

Be it a TikTok trend that puts drivers at risk of receiving huge fines or experts warning against a trend called “Blackout Rage Gallons”, there have been some shocking activities that have gone viral on social media platforms and this latest one is no exception.

What is the “Think Drinks” trend?

In case it wasn’t already obvious enough, the “sink drink” trend encompasses drinks and sinks — specifically, people deciding to brew their drinks in their kitchen sink rather than a pitcher or bowl. I hope I was kidding.

Why? Well, maybe it’s because the sink is bigger than most water pitchers. Or maybe it’s because some people on TikTok told them to do so.

And social media users certainly have a lot to say about it.

One TikTok user commented on the video, “Who does that?”

“This is the dumbest idea I’ve ever seen,” added another.

A third said: “Absolutely not.”

“Oh you drink it,” a fourth commented.

A fifth wrote: “The inside of the sink is really dirty.”

And it turns out that this trend is much more dangerous than people actually realize and can pose considerable risks to your health.

Doctor’s Answer

Medical and scientific programme leader Dr Gareth Nye is urging people not to jump on the bandwagon and use the sink as a place to mix drinks.

It goes without saying that the kitchen sink is considered one of the most dangerous places in the kitchen, as it is where you wash your hands and utensils that have come into contact with both cooked and uncooked food.

Think of the bacteria that may be in that raw chicken you cut up on your chopping board last week, or that stale coffee you poured from a mug that was left by your bedside for a few days.

Dr Nye also revealed to Magnet Kitchens that “a study by the National Sanitation Foundation found that 45% of kitchen sinks tested positive for coliform bacteria, such as E. coli, and 27% contained mold, which is known to cause allergic reactions and respiratory illnesses.”

“Also, most drains have some sort of clog, usually from grease or fat.”

So if you don’t want to get food poisoning or contract salmonella, it’s probably best to leave the kitchen sink as a place to wash dishes rather than make drinks — which means not becoming a TikTok follower.
