Science is about to ruin your life.

For most people double dipping isn't that big of a deal. I mean look at all that dip... and you have so much chip left! It would be like a crime not to go back for more, right?

WRONG

According to a study at Tulane University in New Orleans, they have analyzed flu data from the past 35 years and found a crazy connection to the Super Bowl. Check this out.

The study proved that if your city's team makes it to the Super Bowl, the death rate from the flu jumps through the roof.  People over the age the 65 in that city are 18% more likely to die... there's no way that's a coincidence.

The researchers of this study concluded that the main cause of this unholy germ swamp is double-dipping at big Super Bowl parties with people you don't know and, more importantly, their germs.

So the moral of the story is... single dipping is caring.
