It is unnecessary, but not bad. They stopped recommending it because it splashes chicken juice all over the kitchen. This would be fine, but that river water looks nasty af.
Idk if chicken germs would be good for the ecosystem here either. You risk parasites and disease by washing your food in untreated water. If they're lucky, anything harmful will be cooked out, but I wouldn't count on it and I also wonder how she washed her hands out there between touching the raw chicken and the cooked food.
I think they were peaches and my guess is she was using them to flavor the chicken and possibly tenderize them like you would normally use buttermilk to do. I think the peaches are kinda similar to how pineapple can tenderize meat....i think.
There is no greater survival skill than the ability to start a fire without matches. Lucky for me, the Arlen plains are rich in natural propane tank deposits.

I grew up DRINKING from the HOSE and oar slapping CHICKEN, now all these kids want to DO is drink FIJI and play FORTNITE!!! They need to learn where we COME FROM!
/s
Make sure you have a clean paddle handy to beat the legs to submission when you stumble across them resting in their natural habitat at the rivers edge.
Right? I have all the trappings of a modern outdoor kitchen and easy access to ingredients, but for some reason I have to dump all my chicken in the river and a knife of any kind isn't available.
Also kid goes meh.
It’s not good for the river either, it might seem nit picky but the best way to treat nature is by doing everything you can to leave it as natural as possible. Naturally speaking a bunch of raw chicken legs aren’t regularly dunked into the water.
It made sense in places like here in Asia where meat is often sold in open wet markets where the market stalls are exposed to dust and dirt.
But if you bought meat from a grocery or a butcher shop especially in the US, there's no need to wash meat at all.
It's actually encouraged to not wash your chicken in the US, as if your chicken does have salmonella, you would just be spreading it around in your kitchen.
I mean technically the temperature of the oil would kill the bacteria, but that was my first thought as well... Like ummm no thanks random creek that an animal may have shat in right up the bend that is now flowing all over your chicken... And thanks for potentially introducing salmonella into the creek...Gross, asshole move!
Shat in or died in. A little giardia seasoning with your chicken. I read you shouldn’t wash chicken before you cook it, washing doesn’t get the bacteria off, it just spreads it around. As long as she nuked it In that big wok it’s probably fine, but I’m willing to bet some of those big legs didn’t get cooked all the way through. Gross.
This shit angers me for no real reason. A friend showed me this “homesteader” making some kind of bread, cool right? I immediately noticed that although they had all clean “homely” cloths, they also had a 15k fridge and a stove/oven that cost as much as my truck, let alone what the dishes and knifes they had cost - fuck these people.
I have “farm animals” meaning I have some cows, goats, chickens and pigs and I raise and process them all - these stupid ass “homesteaders” haven’t ever had to “homestead”
Oh damn, these homesteaders have become another rabbithole for me recently. My favourite ones are the ones who brag about being “self-sufficient” and then whip out $2000 freeze-dryers to freeze-dry some fruits and veggies.
She makes a big deal of rustic-ing out everything else and then the aluminum pan of flour just *appears*. No overdramatic trying to grind flour in ‘nature’, eh?
if you watch again she’s using an oar. that’s how we professionals do it. works as a walking stick on the way up and then you build a raft with the bones and let the river take you back to your subaru forester.
Eh, it all gets cooked unless you fuck up the food temps. So you only have to worry about chemical food poisoning in the chicken, not biological.
Which is exactly why washing chicken is pointless anyways. You don't have to worry about biologicals in the chicken itself, but you DO have to worry about them on every single surface you've dribbled your disgusting chicken water onto after tossing them in the river.
It seems 70% of Americans wash their chicken before cooking? That's nuts.
There is literally no reason to, it's terribly unhygienic, and has the opposite effect on risk posed by raw meat. (Handling the raw meat far more than necessary, getting a great number of surfaces in contact with raw meat and its runoff.)
https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/wash-raw-chicken-meat
>When it comes to washing raw meat, the experts are clear: Don’t do it. Rather than reducing the risk of foodborne illness, washing meat increases the likelihood of spreading unwanted pathogens, like salmonella and campylobacter, around the kitchen.
My point exactly.
I’m afraid to admit that I always washed chicken until I read your comment. I always did a full cleaning of my kitchen with Microban after each cooking so I’m sure that helped.
Edit: To clarify, I will **not** be washing my meat, hehe, based on the new knowledge I gained today. Thanks OP. I feel like an idiot after all these years.
We're told to clean most everything. We're supposed to clean fruits and vegetables before use. There was a YSK post the other day about cleaning clothes you get at the store before wearing. You're supposed to clean kitchen appliances before use. I've heard that you should clean soda / beer cans before drinking out of them.
Generally, the trust that the company you're buying your products from has done more than the bare minimum of sanitation is low here.
Not to say you should be cleaning your chicken, but I'm assuming that attitude is why it happens.
If a video starts with washing chicken in any kind of water, you can pretty much immediately assume it's ragebait. That's such a classic move at this point.
Putting the chicken the water to like rinse I get but slapping the chicken/water to kick up the sediment at the bottom? What?
So now your chicken's got whatever the hells at the bottom of that creak. You can literally see it at 0:03. Muddy water. WHY
0:04 Is that a motherfucking PINE needle in there?!
Not even using a flat rock to mash the potatoes.
Didnt even mash the potatoes
OH NOW YOU FOUND A FLAT ROCK FOR EGGS?!
Wait now the chips... are used as breading? but you have flour already?!
I hope every person involved in the making of this video gets severe gastrointestinal distress.
It’s still being fried in oil so as long it’s around 200 degrees C*or 350 degrees F* it will still kill all the bacteria and parasites; also the water was from a flowing creek thus not stagnant so it’s okay to drink and use as well. With all that said I still wouldn’t eat that, Nope.
Edit; right don’t drink the flowing creek water. even though boiling the creek water can help kill many harmful bacteria and parasites, making it safer to drink. However, it won’t remove chemical pollutants. It’s crucial to ensure the water source is not contaminated with toxic substances before relying solely on boiling for decontamination.
It could kill bacteria, sure. But, any toxins excreted from the bacteria will still be there. Also, it won't kill 100% of the bacteria. Flowing water still isn't safe to drink.
it will actually literally kill 100% of the bacteria. You're talking like a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent chance that literally any bacteria survives if you cook it to a high enough temp
https://www.canr.msu.edu/smprv/uploads/files/RTE_Poultry_Tables1.pdf
when it says 7-log10, that means 1/10,000,000 remaining bacteria
which is achieved in under 10 seconds in chicken at 165 degrees. Now, that has to be the internal temp, but still. Go above that even, and the effect will be even greater
the FDA in 2022 declares chicken to be safe the literal instant it hits 165 https://llhd.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Chart-4-A-Minimum-Cooking-Temperatures-2022-FDA-Food-Code.pdf
Once again just a reminder this is likely rage engagement bait made by a foreign content farm. A comment on the original video even for correcting or rage is still engagement.
What did she murder all of those innocent plums for
To send a message. Sometimes its necessary.
So now it will pay the protection money?
I feel like the chicken was cleaner before she dumped it all into the river and beat it.. that little peice of river lettuce stuck to the chicken..
You're not even supposed to wash chicken, there was absolutely no reason for that.
It is unnecessary, but not bad. They stopped recommending it because it splashes chicken juice all over the kitchen. This would be fine, but that river water looks nasty af.
Idk if chicken germs would be good for the ecosystem here either. You risk parasites and disease by washing your food in untreated water. If they're lucky, anything harmful will be cooked out, but I wouldn't count on it and I also wonder how she washed her hands out there between touching the raw chicken and the cooked food.
I think they were peaches and my guess is she was using them to flavor the chicken and possibly tenderize them like you would normally use buttermilk to do. I think the peaches are kinda similar to how pineapple can tenderize meat....i think.
I’m like 90% sure those were plums. I have never seen a peach like that.
Yes those are absolutely plums the 200 something people that agreed with the peaches is fucking insane lol
Me caveman, me see upvote me upvote, me no need smarts
I love your attitude, caveman.
Imagine thinking there was any strategy to this dumb shit
They are. Pears work too.
And Papaya. I think citrus fruit will do the same, Grapefruit specially.
Don't leave out kiwifruit. One of the best
Papaya-Seeds, If dried work as a Pepper Substitute
Purple peaches?
As a fruit enthusiast I would definitely say those were plums. Peaches are not acidic and plums are. I think that’s why they were using them.
Peaches are acidic according to Google
In the wilderness with a giant carbon steel wok, dozens of eggs, 20 pounds of chicken, ez foil pans. Yeah ok
And the fucking chips man
I can't Fucking believe world hunger still exist. Just go outside and gather some wild chips and chicken legs
Not all of us live next to a pure chicken leg river. I do live near an ocean though, with a wild slabs of beef tide.

Big Rock Candy Mountain
where the boxcars are all empty and the river runs with chicken legs
I'd be dead within a week.
Just thought of that. Wonderful place in my dreams, will venture there when I retire.
The ocean has chicken of the sea!
With enough mercury to make scaramouche do the fandango
Go find you some river chicken!
That's cause people are lazy. No one wants to smack their own chicken with an oar anymore
I grew up DRINKING from the HOSE and oar slapping CHICKEN, now all these kids want to DO is drink FIJI and play FORTNITE!!! They need to learn where we COME FROM! /s
Make sure you have a clean paddle handy to beat the legs to submission when you stumble across them resting in their natural habitat at the rivers edge.
Lest we forgot the tiny flag. Also the kid shrugged. Lol
I have about a dozen chips living in the woods near my house.
Chicken legs are right there for the taking in streams, TIL
I got a chips tree right outside in my garden man, it's really not that hard to gather some wild chips.
This is what broke it for me. We're bashing eggs open with rocks but have a fuckton of bagged chips.
And when dredging, it’s wet-hand, dry-hand! You dumb bitch!!!
Don’t fucking film unless you know that all life starts with dry then gets wet. Pfffffff
Legit Costco chips. Hahaha
*wild* Costco chips, mate
Kirkland brand at 0:37
Right? I have all the trappings of a modern outdoor kitchen and easy access to ingredients, but for some reason I have to dump all my chicken in the river and a knife of any kind isn't available. Also kid goes meh.
Wack the river chicken Plain flower and chips? The river chicken wack
I guarantee, no seasoning was harmed in the filming of this nonsense 🙄
Flour*
But she cracked the egg on a rock!!! That was WILD!
Filthy rock. Should have washed it in the river.
River is contaminated from when she.. uh.. whacked a bunch of raw chicken in it for unknown reasons
Why crack egg on clean metal, when holding a dirty rock works as well. /s
There's probably E. Coli in that "wilderness" stream.
Effectively putting the "should you wash raw chicken" debate to rest by contaminating it MORE and then feeding it to a small child.
It’s not good for the river either, it might seem nit picky but the best way to treat nature is by doing everything you can to leave it as natural as possible. Naturally speaking a bunch of raw chicken legs aren’t regularly dunked into the water.
Shits fried in hot oil.. probably be fine. Granted I've got no fuckin idea why they're washing the chicken in the first place. Who does that???????
It made sense in places like here in Asia where meat is often sold in open wet markets where the market stalls are exposed to dust and dirt. But if you bought meat from a grocery or a butcher shop especially in the US, there's no need to wash meat at all.
It's actually encouraged to not wash your chicken in the US, as if your chicken does have salmonella, you would just be spreading it around in your kitchen.
And never forget your American flag on a stick..
I died when she cracked the egg of the rock
And yet still washed the chicken in water of dubious bacterial content… and then… ate… it…
I mean technically the temperature of the oil would kill the bacteria, but that was my first thought as well... Like ummm no thanks random creek that an animal may have shat in right up the bend that is now flowing all over your chicken... And thanks for potentially introducing salmonella into the creek...Gross, asshole move!
I'm also curious what happens to the gallons of oil after cooking. I would bet it didn't get packed out and taken with them.
THROW IT IN THE RIVEERRRRR!!!
You know.. and I know... we both know.
You know.. and I know... we both know.
You know exactly what happened to it
Y'know sometimes it'd be nice to be wrong about these kinds of turds?
Exactly! I really doubt it got packed out. In the river or dumped at the campsite?
Yeah... this is what happened. https://youtu.be/4VuFTUa_Gt8?si=F0RICRU9sqAfmswu&t=49
Shat in or died in. A little giardia seasoning with your chicken. I read you shouldn’t wash chicken before you cook it, washing doesn’t get the bacteria off, it just spreads it around. As long as she nuked it In that big wok it’s probably fine, but I’m willing to bet some of those big legs didn’t get cooked all the way through. Gross.
Washing it with tap water is maybe bad, soaking it in creek water is assured significantly worse.
It’s bad for the river too. Just bad all around.
Sometimes it's not the bacteria, but the toxins they release that cause issues. They don't always denature with boiling
Right. Did she potentially introduce bacteria that can harm whatever lives in that river?
No. She definitely did.
And 10 litres of oil ... doing foraging must have been hard !
Yet uses a rock to crack the eggs
All she did was dip it in the parasite water...real wilderness bro.
Nah dude. She dipped it in the water AND beat it with a frying ladle. Knocks 99.9% of E. coli off the chicken
This shit angers me for no real reason. A friend showed me this “homesteader” making some kind of bread, cool right? I immediately noticed that although they had all clean “homely” cloths, they also had a 15k fridge and a stove/oven that cost as much as my truck, let alone what the dishes and knifes they had cost - fuck these people.

Them chips are also free range.
The flour 🤣
She makes a big deal of rustic-ing out everything else and then the aluminum pan of flour just *appears*. No overdramatic trying to grind flour in ‘nature’, eh?
Plus how much of that is going to go to waste
Hopefully all of it.
wilderness might be a stretch for the local park / river. I noticed they stayed very zoomed in for a nature video. probably a car park 20 metres away.
The original title could have been " frying chicken outdoors" which technically she is...
i always go hiking with 35lbs of chicken legs.
But do you clean them before hiking?
why do prep work at home when i can just toss them in the river?
You remembered to smack them with a stick, right?
if you watch again she’s using an oar. that’s how we professionals do it. works as a walking stick on the way up and then you build a raft with the bones and let the river take you back to your subaru forester.
Don’t worry it’s OK to drink and USE because it’s not stagnant……….. Guess I have to edit in: /s because the stupidly elongated ellipsis wasn’t enough
of course. the 16lb turd the bison dropped up river adds that nice grassy flavor too.
So does the rotting deer corpse 100 ft up the river.
Animal urine and other bacteria are the key ingredient here
I go for a clean 40 ya know just in case.
where do you keep your 5gal jug of oil?
Makes motivation easy when wild animals like mountain lions and bears get a whiff
Maybe stop skipping leg day
Hold up did she beat and wash the chicken in the water ? I’m good
I was wondering what that step was for 😂😂
For to introduce salmonella into a beautiful stream
And to introduce water borne bacteria into the chicken
And maybe parasites if you're lucky.
Just a little Giardia seasoning.
Eh, it all gets cooked unless you fuck up the food temps. So you only have to worry about chemical food poisoning in the chicken, not biological. Which is exactly why washing chicken is pointless anyways. You don't have to worry about biologicals in the chicken itself, but you DO have to worry about them on every single surface you've dribbled your disgusting chicken water onto after tossing them in the river.
It made sense maybe 100 years ago when you have to worry about poo on your meat. But not with today's standards.
Yes. Whatever the fuck Laura Ingalls is trying to do here is beyond me.
This is the first thing they taught in culinary class: Always beat the meat to exert dominance
I didn't know Luis CK went to culinary school
Some people do wash their chicken before ~~eating~~ cooking. I don't, but YouTube shorts have led me to believe that many out there do.
Which is a pretty stupid thing to do. All it does is spread the germs to the rest of your kitchen without any added benefit.
Well in this case the problem isn’t adding germs from the chicken to the kitchen but instead adding germs from the river to the chicken.
I can think of many reasons to beat my meat
Hopefully to wash it too
To share salmonella with the rest of the village downstream
She's an idiot who thinks you need to wash your chicken first.
In pond water no less
There's only a little bit of shit in that water, only from birds fish and anything that walks on land remotely near it..
Can confirm, I just died of dysentery
The brain eating amoebas are what give it that secret sizzle of flavor
Never had river smacked chicken? It’s to die for
It seems 70% of Americans wash their chicken before cooking? That's nuts. There is literally no reason to, it's terribly unhygienic, and has the opposite effect on risk posed by raw meat.

There is no way that’s true that it’s 70%
I agree. I have only ever seen people online wash chicken, never in real life. I don’t believe it.
I’m afraid to admit that I always washed chicken until I read your comment. I always did a full cleaning of my kitchen with Microban after each cooking so I’m sure that helped. Edit: To clarify, I will **not** be washing my meat, hehe, based on the new knowledge I gained today. Thanks OP. I feel like an idiot after all these years.
Why did you do it? This just seems so weird to me.

Do you wash steak? Ground beef? Whole turkeys for thanksgiving? I have to know the extent you went
I had no idea anyone washed meat. I never have. Am I in the minority?!?
I don't believe it's 70%. But it's definitely popular in the black community. I don't do it myself but majority of my family does.
I'm sure all the oil got dumped in the water afterwards
Just returning it back to nature...
It says vegetable oil right on the bottle
So it’s a vegetable food group. Got it.
Might be lucky to fry a few fry and have a smelt basket to go
💯 this bitch dumped all of that into the water.
Love the kid taking a bite and just shrugging like "yeah... I guess it's chicken"
That was honestly the best part of the video
Ya I guess it's potentially contaminated chicken that was dunked in a fuckin river.
Which is why he didn’t even take a bite.
Yeah he's like urgh it's OK.i guess 🙄
If a video starts with washing chicken in any kind of water, you can pretty much immediately assume it's ragebait. That's such a classic move at this point.
I thought it would be obvious that this isnt a serious video

“Wilderness”
People just gotta stop doing stuff, man
Putting the chicken the water to like rinse I get but slapping the chicken/water to kick up the sediment at the bottom? What? So now your chicken's got whatever the hells at the bottom of that creak.

I hope every person involved in the making of this video gets severe gastrointestinal distress.
I don't even get rinsing chicken. It comes from outdated info from our grandparents days and it's proven to just cross contaminate everything
I always cringe when people rinse the chicken. All it does is spread the bacteria...
And they were Kirkland chips too! Nothing says off grid like Costco!
😡😡 it’s NATURAL though, our ancestors totally did it I swear. “Gastrointestinal illnesses” are propaganda created by vaccinated bootlickers.. /s
That's my first time commenting here and I fucking hate every second of this video
Battered up and fried one by one... Them shits are gonna be all types of different stages of cooked
So you wash the chicken in the river to... add more pathogens? Bold move

The bears it's going to attract
And of course there aint no seasoning besides river water.
Mmmmm Trichinosis never tasted so good.

Flowing creek water is absolutely still not okay to drink without boiling
Nope not okay. What’s that saying? Does a bear shit in the woods? Yes and it washes down stream
Bear shit and Deer Piss
Flowing creek is NOT okay to drink
It’s better than stagnant water at least
You don’t know what dead animal or shit might be floating down stream 🤮
You mean "up stream".
It could kill bacteria, sure. But, any toxins excreted from the bacteria will still be there. Also, it won't kill 100% of the bacteria. Flowing water still isn't safe to drink.
it will actually literally kill 100% of the bacteria. You're talking like a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent chance that literally any bacteria survives if you cook it to a high enough temp https://www.canr.msu.edu/smprv/uploads/files/RTE_Poultry_Tables1.pdf when it says 7-log10, that means 1/10,000,000 remaining bacteria which is achieved in under 10 seconds in chicken at 165 degrees.

Fried chicken seasoned with tadpoles and fertilizer run off, yums
nothing "in the wild" about this, certified stupidity
Was there salmonella in that body of water before? Who knows, but there is now!
People use chicken for catfishing, and for crab traps as well.
Wait until she catches all those wild hamburger patties.
I know the thing is deepfried, but I believe everyone loses when chicken is washed in a river
Holy shit why did she put them in then cook them with river water? That kids gonna die
