This is not an Onion article, seriously.

Now, academics have told British lawmakers that internet memes may be contributing to the UK obesity crisis and doing harm to teenagers on a significant scale.

Memes carry dangerous health-related messages and make light of unhealthy eating habits, researchers from Loughborough University wrote in a letter sent to a British parliamentary committee.

So if there were memes that said 2 apples are cheaper than a small bag of chips, would that help?

Reminds me of the time I was blazed and tried to order 420 nuggets with 69 creamy ranches. I thought it was extremely funny at the time.

Thanks for posting this. I noticed the article, too and wasn't even sure what to make of it. Since it's academics that came up with this, I'm blaming @CycloneErik for the obesity epidemic.

They could have traded suits and no one would have noticed.

The orange had to be thinking, "Damn, it's a good thing this is the Orange Bowl and not the Doughnut Bowl."

It was all fun and games until the deep fried memes made us fat.
