Well now I must prove you wrong

While aluminum and plastic build obituaries

That's no fun.

I can work within those limitations, will report back!

Only if you’re a lil bitch

this is literally one of the deaths in the latest Final Destination Bloodlines except even worse, because someone broke a glass into a tub of ice by mistake.

But I like the texture

Just found out these guys have a Bluesky account. Not gonna lie they were the hardest thing about quitting Twitter

I know some sword-eaters who would beg to differ, but you definitely shouldn't be eating metal spikes unintentionally

you are having a bad time

Yea you'll lose all of your gold rings

That doctor is clearly inept!

Sad that this needs to be said

I am shocked they let you publish this.

I switched to pumice stone to clean my grill. A bit of extra scrubbing, but not metal bits

I use this wooden oar called a "great scrape" works great

Don’t go cleaning off all that flavor!

Sharp Cheddar is (generally) ok!

I used a wood paddle. Hot grill burns wood so there are grooves. Best yet.

that is why I just wipe the grate on the grass

Ah yes very easy to see plastic or insanely easy to see aluminum vs small metal spike that have lodged themselves into people's esophagus... hmm Of course the best course of action in either case is wiping the damn thing after cleaning but still this was silly

bsky.app/profile/zeni... Is a serious matter uwu

I’m not a bot, I’m a human, and I know I’m talking about the topic of this thread which is wire brushes uwu

its just like 1984

Who ever cleans the grill? That's where the flavour is!

Soooo.....you're basically taking the razor blades in candy fearmongering bullshit and making it about burgers? $50 says most of the Midwest actually starts doing this!!!!!

Thank you, U.S. Consumer, for giving me something else to think about instead of fuckface

You can’t tell me what to do! (Proceeds to voraciously devour a grill brush, wire side first)

Or...and stay with me on this...learn what "clean" means...

This is from an agency the administration is actively trying to gut, this one's still good.

“But, the flavor of one hundred different meals is in those spikes!” -Al Bundy, probably.

Literally just happened to a friend: metal wire ended up stuck in her throat, coughing up blood. Super-scary.

Yum, more minerals.

or #bevegan, all problems solved, how about that? simple, easy, #crueltyfree & healthy alternative

The grill daddy does in fact do a GRATE job in case you were wondering

Or just avoid grilling because the process of charring food can produce carcinogens. Why take healthy food & ruin it?

I do not clean my grill but will take this under advisement

The more I’m on this app the more I can’t differentiate truth and satire. Somebody (maybe many somebodies) somewhere see this a delicate vegan dish and I wouldn’t be surprised. As a matter of fact, I expect it.🤪

for the lemon and onion, the trick works because both foods carry food-safe acids.

I thought perhaps the goal on a Memorial Day weekend was to remember those who gave their lives supporting and defending the Constitution in accordance with the Oaths each swore and fully understood.

thinking you may not want to bring attention to the fact that you actually help people. that seems to be a criterion for getting DOGEd.

enjoy your job before you get DOGEd.

How does @theonion.com differentiate itself from our actual government?

...could anybody confirm that in the 90's, Aprilia (Italian manufacturer of motorcycles) had a warning in the owners manual "contains no edible parts"?

I have twice at a restaurant had a piece of wire in my steak It’s because the barbecue grill they’re using they’re using a wire brush on Please get a coconut brush or a non-wire brush for the grill

Smh. Sorry to hear that. It's absolutely a thing. It's not the most common injury, so it's possible most Drs may never see a patient that has this happen, but it happens enough that it's worth checking for if the circumstances are right.

Doctor warns about grill brushes after 4-yr-old accidentally swallows wire youtu.be/QH0zjFpxr8A?...

No junk food for me and soda drinks, good Australia fresh food

You're supposed to clean your grill!?!?

oh, that's your answer for everything.

As someone who doesn't grill or own a grill at all, I was so confused as to why we'd be eating metal spikes and had to have this explained to me 😭

Yes, but sending out common sense posts no one asked for is MUCH cheaper than actually inspecting stuff.

Wow. To think you actually have to tell this to people.

You can literally die from internal bleeding resulting from these spikes. You are the joke here.

I found a video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMtu...

uscpsc would you also recommend a reusable plank of maple to scrape off the leftover bits on the grille?

We stopped using that wretched thing last year!

thank you safety First

THE ONION FTW!!!

What⁉️⁉️ No warnings to not deep fry frozen turkeys⁉️⁉️😳😣😖😫

With Trump‘s new education of American Society, and the deletion of the Department of Education. We will be needing such US Consumer Product updates for society often!

Meat is murder

Use an onion

No. Instead: Use your grill more than 1 day a year. After using, put it on high, close it, wait until smoke stops. Before using, put it on high, close it. Let it get hot. Wait for any smoke to stop. Oil the grill with a rag and tongs if needed. Now cook. Simple.

Metal spikes are a leftist hoax.

Here comes big government telling me what I can't do again. Next you'll say I can't use my grandpa's lead grill anymore because it's "dangerous"

I stopped having anything toasted at a local deli when I saw them using an old damaged metal brush to clean the toaster machine.

This reminds me of a TikTok I saw a couple of years ago where a kid got a grill brush bristle stuck in his throat and was in a lot of pain for a while before the doctors took an X-ray and figured out what was going on

Just came here to say nylon can be sharp too, but it will never rust over time, so aluminum foil does seem like a better option.

It was at a restaurant They throw steaks on the grill

Those smallest spikes are tiny. You can't see them with your bare eyes but they can cause massive injuries for your intestines. Apparently. Didn't know but this is what googling told me.

You can't tell me how to eat my metal shavings.

Be consistent … let MAGA idiots eat metal spikes if they want to

This Memorial Day Weekend, the goal is to grill without eating meat. Animal Ag is destroying this entire planet + all life forms once lived in pristine, naturally balanced conditions, joy + freedom, + free will taken from lives, All deserve Nature 's gifts, to live out life spans to natural demise

Because aluminum is good for your nerves...

Good tip. I did not know those were dangerous.

I'm surprised CPSC still hasn't been dismantled by this regime...

That is some bad photoshop work. Oh well, I'm not planning to grill or eat metal spikes. But please add a shadow for that tool, it's visually upsetting.

New fear unlocked

B-B-B-But... Your boss 86'd (86 47, heh) lead poisoning protection for children... or is this notice not up to date with *current* Trump Regime policies? Unlike tariff "policies", detrimental health decisions seem to be set in stone. Nes pas? 🖕 arstechnica.com/health/2025/...

Good to see RFK Jr. doesn’t have a hold on the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. He’d be telling us to skip the burgers and just eat the metal spikes.

So that's the bar now, huh

The metal ones are very useful for scraping old wax off barracks floors before repolishing them. First summer of infantry officer training my platoon bought all we could from Canex (post exchange in Canada) and wore them all down to nothing. They worked like a charm! We did not eat off the floor...

No one can afford steaks anymore.

What? You budget hasn’t been slashed yet?

They… as in pronouns? 😱

A half onion rubbed cut side down against the grill with a good bit of elbow grease can also pull up filaments stuck in grease and char!

Omg. This reminded me of several episodes of Monter Inside Me. I warn people of this constantly. 🤣

Ive watched enough Monsters Inside Me to know about this.

This is no joke!

I'm a wire bristle in my stomach survivor (summer of 2022). But the doctor did send me home with a cool picture of the inside of my stomach. And I got to eat chocolate ice cream for breakfast in the hospital the following morning. 😋

Pry that burger out of my dead cold hands. 😁

And make sure u keep plastics away.

But the metal spikes are so delicious!

I use an abrasive pad and a plastic grill puck

I'm a fan of these wooden ones you work in to get them to be the shape of your grates

Imagine thinking this is an issue. Maybe buy a normal wire brush that doesn’t shed, and then look at your grill to make sure it’s clean rather than covered in shrapnel after cleaning? Instead you want to melt nylon on the grill? This really is Trump’s dumb America

An onion cut in half cleans a grill. Turn the grill on, cut the onion in half stick a fork in the root and stem ends and rub it where it needs to be cleaned. Works like a charm.

Are the metal spikes okay? Asking for a friend...

What prompts an idiot to want a known choaking hazard back

Unfortunately, the average national educational scores are far too low. You have to be able to trust your population before you can allow them to have nice things. They may consider implementing a program for more intelligent states such as Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Vermont. 😆🐣🍫🪀
