Don't catch the fatness flu

That's right folks. Scientists have linked some forms of obescity to a virus. The theory has only been proven in chickens. But the chickens infected with the virus gained up to 3 times more fat than the control chickens while eating the same amount of food.

Here is the story.

You know what this means right? No more excuses like "I'm big boned", or "It's in my genes." Now the excuse everyone will be giving is "I have that virus."

As of yet they have not tested to see what happens when the fat chickens get off their butt and onto the treadmill, but I'm sure that will be the next step.
