This is easy as long as it doesn't impact my health.

I'd give up food in a heart beat....would have so much more income, it would be glorious

Your food takes a few days to cycle through your digestive system. If you never ate again you wouldn't poop either. Fasting isn't the same as not eating ever again

At first I was going to choose not having to poop, because eating is usually pretty great while pooping is usually whatever, but now that I think about it, not having to eat would do wonders to my wallet. There are lots of things I could've bought by now had I never eaten.

Never eat. I'm extremely fussy as it is and it'd save a fortune. Plus you'd never put on weight.

Seems like the best option, assuming I won't die of starvation of course

So I'm dead either way right?

Starvation vs whatever the hell happens to you when you eat too much and can't poop?

The former is probably the less painful way to go so I choose pooping.

edit:

Wait, let me re-read this. I never have to poop again meaning I never have a biological need to again?

I'd love to never have to poop again.

Food is one of the biggest pleasures in life and a universal human bonding experience. I also have Crohn's Disease.....so this one's doubly easy for me to answer. Never poop again.


This would be a more interesting question if it was a trade-off: would you be willing to never have to poop again if it meant never being able to eat again.

A poop takes 30 seconds whereas eating takes ages to prepare, cook, washup etc.

And I'd also save thousands a year by not eating.

I'd stop eating.

Not eating, easy choice.

Eating is expensive and takes a lot of time from my day.
Pooping is free and pretty quick.

Sorry OP, but this one of the dumber "either or" questions posed on Era...

I would 100% pick never having to eat again.

Save so much money and time, but could still opt in if I was feeling like a nice meal or a celebration!

If you go months without eating and then decide to have a nice meal wouldn't that make you feel like shit? I'm choosing neither. This is some Twilight zone shit.

Would depend entirely on whether or not I could still choose to eat if I wanted to.

One of the underrated things about eating (that you can learn from listening to or reading stuff by people who have to take nutrients from a tube) is the social aspect of it. I'd say if you can't partake in eating at all, it's worth the money to still experience the human bonding and culture that food brings us.

Definitely going to keep eating. Our reward system is wired to expect pleasure from food, who knows what sort of drugs or fetish we would need to fill that gap.

Eating easily.

You would save a lot of money, health risks would decrease, and your teeth would thank you.

I enjoy shitting too much and I'd save a fortune if I didn't have to eat anymore.

Can I still eat if I choose to? Cause I'd choose never have to eat. Save so much money and time.

If you never have to eat again, what are you pooping?

OP unexpectedly learning where poop comes from in this thread.

You can't always get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need.

Defiantly never poop again. Not sure who would ever pick never eating again over that option

When you say we don't have to, do you mean we still can if we want to? What happens if I pick never having to eat food but then still get a pack of hot fries from the corner store?

Eating is the easy choice for me. Would probably save at least $3000 a year--maybe more--if I didn't have to eat.

I guess I'd save money on water and toilet paper if I didn't have to shit, but not even close to as much.
