One \u2018hack\u2019 that has gained attention on the app on multiple occasions over the past couple of years, involves cooking steak in a toaster. In 2020, user itsmeju1iette, who posts bizarre food videos for comedy purposes, went viral with a video of her using a toaster to cook steak, garnering over a million likes. While Juliette\u2019s video appeared to just be a joke, a number of other users have since gone on to film themselves trying out the cooking method themselves. Now, users are being warned against trying the potentially dangerous hack. On November 15, the London Fire Brigade reuploaded Juliette\u2019s video to Twitter, along with the caption: \u201cWhat you having for dinner? This #Electricalsafetyweek we\u2019re reminding people to only use electrical products for their designated use.
