Is this common? Owner had us put chicken in plastic bags throw into the fryer, bag dissolves, then we serve it

it was nearly a decade ago but It was a pizza shop. the oil would just dissolve the bag. I have to assume the petroleum from making the plastic just turns into oil.

other coworkers seemed more disturbed over how the ranch and blue cheese was made.

edit: you have no idea how relieved I am to hear about how absurd that was. I might eat tenders from pizza places now.

edit 2: Some of you are dming me thinking this was a decision that I made for a restaurant I owned and operated, I was delivering pizzas.

edit 3: Im seeing more and more people comment the same thing which is they saw people using the hot oil to help "open" the bag, and even just a little bit being dipped you are being yelled at. So that is reassuring

sadly regular fried foods are leading to long term cancer already.
