Here’s an actual headline and an actual story that seems to have some real science at its core. Of course you’d want to dress up your pet chicken this Halloween, but according to ABC News, there’s a particular strain of salmonella going around right now that has infected at least 92 people in 29 states.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns against dressing up pet chickens for Halloween https://t.co/cDdInbZ6aH pic.twitter.com/hmGiv3kJfa

I don't know where these chicken people find these chickens they can catch and put costumes on. The only time I can get close to mine is when they are on the coop and then you lose the good chicken picture light

First they came for our pet chicken costumes – wait, there are costumes for pet chickens? Follow up question: there are pet chickens?

I've been dressing up as salmonella for the last eight Halloweens in a row and these CDC clowns haven't said squat to me. #justsaying
