Though many have experimented in the kitchen this year, some social media users now have a beef among one another after debating whether or not a home chef was in the wrong for rinsing out cooked ground beef.
A TikTokker recently caught heat on Twitter after uploading a tutorial video to share a tip she "learned in Nutrition a couple years ago." The home chef dumped a block of raw, ground beef into a pan, cooked it to brown and then thoroughly rinsed it out in a strainer in the sink.

"All this grease is disgusting… so get rid of it!" the TikTokker wrote in a text box on the video.
"Look at the difference!" she later added, pouring the rinsed-off meat back into the pan.
