Familiy's Eats Glowing Chicken Dinner
F A Y E T T E V I L L E, N.C., March 7 -- Johnail Fairley says he hopes to find out what made his family's chicken dinner glow.
Fairley and his family sat down for a chicken dinner Monday night at their home in Fayetteville, N.C. Afterward, he was preparing to feed the leftovers to his dog when he noticed a blue-green glow coming from the meat.
Fairley called Womack Army Medical Center and the Fayetteville Fire Department, which sent over a hazardous materials team.
One of the firefighters suspected the chicken had been seasoned with sea salt that contained natural phosphorescent chemicals from the ocean.
But Fairley says his family doesn't use that.
He says officials are trying to determine what the cause is.
Officials also suggested the family visit a hospital as a precaution.
