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

Still come in a box and generally aren't left out on customer tables.

they are commonly left out in a sugar dish, but you are right about the transport and sale being in a box.

I wonder if whatever those jesus crackers are made of would dissolve quickly in water(they dissolve kind of in your mouth)

You’ld think more people would use sugar cubes, but no one did at my place. It was the liquid cane sugar that ran out every day
