Out actor Kevin McHale is a total heartthrob who can easily sing and dance his way into our hearts, but it turns out he may need to spend a little more time honing his cooking skills after accidentally serving his boyfriend Austin McKenzie some bad sausage. (Get your mind out of the gutter folks, we're talking about FOOD here!!) 

According to a recent tweet, the 32-year-old Glee alum accidentally served his beau some undercooked chicken sausage, and as expected, the results weren't very pleasant. 

"But have you undercooked chicken sausage (unintentionally) and then served it to your bf and then he got superrrrr sick and you thought it was covid and you got tested twice but nah you just fed him salmonella?" the "James Dean" singer tweeted, revealing how the incident lead to a small COVID-19 scare.

Thankfully, though, it wasn't the coronavirus, but a case of salmonella. (Although that doesn't sound too pleasant to us either.)

Luckily, Austin seems to be okay. As Delish points out, Kevin posted a screenshot of Austin's Twitter bio that reads, "I left Twitter years ago. I’m back on now to monitor my thirsty boyfriend, Kevin Mchale, who 'accidentally' gave me salmonella 5 days ago," so at least we know he's taking all of this in stride and has a sense of humor about it.

"He should break up with me," Kevin jokingly concluded in his tweet. "I would."

Let this be a lesson to everyone out there! The first rule of sausage sharing is that your sausage should only be served once it's well-done and ready!
