Drunk cooking is a leading cause of domestic kitchen fires, especially late at night.
Dublin Fire Brigade have been issuing warnings about the dangers of drunk cooking for years now, and yet it still remains one of the main reasons for late night fires. DFB have posted plenty of photos of the ‘evidence’ to highlight their warnings, with images of charred pizzas, baguettes and sausages.
“Usually the chef falls asleep waiting on their masterpiece to cook,” states one of the DFB posts, “only to be woken by a smoke alarm, woken by one of our firefighters, or not wake up at all....ever.”
