Roswell, GA -- Health conscious Americans who are avoiding the flu will be avoiding double-dippers at holiday parties.

According to a survey by Kimberly Clark tissue makers, 13 percent of holiday revelers say they'll avoid foods that are subject to double-dipping -- meaning dipping a chip, taking a bite, then dipping the chip again.

Meanwhile, another 13 percent said they're avoiding holiday parties altogether to catching the bug.

Ten percent say they will hug, but not kiss someone and five percent will avoid shaking hands entirely.

Finally, despite being afraid of germs, only four percent say they will avoid kissing someone under the mistletoe.
