Can antibiotics be the cause of foaming during cooking?

It is a common myth that the foam that comes out of the chicken during frying is caused by antibiotics and hormones given to the birds during rearing. There is not a shred of truth in this, because such substances are forbidden. Animals are administered them only in justified cases at the request of a veterinarian, and this is extremely rare. Chicken meat is supplied to stores from farms, so it is almost impossible to find meat containing antibiotics or hormones in the store.
