Fried food is bad for everyone, but it might be especially bad for people with the “wrong” genes, researchers reported Tuesday.

It’s the latest study to show that we are not all created equal when it comes to the risk of weight gain. Some people may have to watch their diets even more carefully than others, the researchers report in the British Medical Journal.
