7. Dwight Has Kidney Stones Because He Eats So Many Beets

In the season two episode "Michael's Birthday," Dwight memorably mentions that he doesn't tip service staff for jobs he can do himself, such as driving a cab or cutting his hair. However, he adds that he does tip his urologist, because in his own words, "I am unable to pulverize my own kidney stones."

This might seem like a totally ordinary comment, except it lines up with something else we learn about Dwight's dietary habits over the course of the show.

It's well documented that Dwight lives on his family's beet farm and is quite partial to consuming the root vegetable, which also happens to be one of the most common foods for forming kidney stones.
