In a freak accident today, a photographer was killed when a huge lump of cheddar landed on him. To be fair, the people who were being photographed did try to warn him. (lemmy.ca)

I know, but nobody actually says cheese except probably 10-year-olds at summer camp. If you want a good photo taken, are you really going to say the word cheese? No you're not.

Tbf, where and when I grew up (USA, 1980s-1990s), it seems like at least 90% of people taking pictures said "ok everybody say cheese!", including school photographers/sears photographers etc. I think it was so common because they were limited takes of tangible negatives, so "say cheese!" improved the chances of getting a smiling picture
