Why not? The stereotype of a U.S. citizen is a fat idiot with a cowboy hat.
But maybe some numbers can help your imagination:
https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/69/wr/mm6916e1.htm
"The daily number of calls to poison centers increased sharply at the beginning of March 2020 for exposures to both cleaners and disinfectants (Figure)."
Looking at the picture, you can see an almost 100% increase in "exposure" to cleaners and disinfectants. And look what it says in "Case 1":
"An adult woman heard on the news to clean all recently purchased groceries before consuming them. She filled a sink with a mixture of 10% bleach solution, vinegar, and hot water, and soaked her produce. While cleaning her other groceries, she noted a noxious smell described as 'chlorine' in her kitchen."
Did she go to school at all? Apparently she skipped chemistry, history and cooking. But reading? I'm sure the bleach bottle says "do not mix with other products".
