It’s the battle of the brushes as Bracebridge residents seem torn on whether to keep using these potentially dangerous BBQ cleaning tools.
Recent reports from physicians across Canada show the potential for the metal wires to stick to food being cooked and get lodged in people’s throats.
While this fact may put some residents off of using the wire brush, a few people in Bracebridge are sticking to this tried and true method of cleaning the grill.
According to various reports, it is extremely difficult to remove these wire bits once they get stuck in your throat.
Some need to be surgically removed if they get too far down your throat.
