Because the undigested corn kernel husks are filled with poop.

TIL I'm corn because I'm full of shit

[–] StupidBrotherInLaw 21 points 1 month ago

If that's true, I'm an entire cob.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Well, you're certainly not a logician

[–] wolfpack86 7 points 1 month ago (4 children)

But like why did they fill up all plump and not just be like a deflated balloon.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Farts blow open the empty kernels like a plastic bag in the wind, then the poop gets in them

[–] wolfpack86 7 points 1 month ago

Finally someone with a science based explanation

Most people dont chew more than 2-3 times so its kinda expected that stuff goes down unchewed

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I compulsively chew at least 11 times in a vain attempt to diminish my obesity. My lack of a sizable beer gut(versus most of my peers) shows promise, nevermind that I basically don't drink, but I assure you, the corn does not care.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Disclaimer, I have dysphagia, so this isn't meant to be the average person's experience, but... I was eating when I read this and counted how many times I chewed when I took a bite until I felt comfortable swallowing and it was 47. You're telling me normal people can chew as low as 2 times? Astounding.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago

I'm in the zero to ten camp for most foods, but right there with you at 47 for fatty meat of any kind. It feels disgusting in my mouth and to swallow it without gagging I need to basically cut it up with my incisors into smaller and smaller pieces until the texture disappears.

"Corn? When did I eats corn?"

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

This is the most alarming experience. Especially in the middle of winter when fewer things have corn readily included

[–] jaggedrobotpubes 24 points 1 month ago (2 children)

At least find an uncensored version. Jesus. So dumb.

Seems like an extreme reaction to a reasonable request

[–] [email protected] 50 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I have a flair for the dramatic

What were these books called?

[–] toynbee 19 points 1 month ago

This one appears to be called "I Guess I'll Just Go Fuck Myself: Thanks for Nothing, Dickbag McShitstain." Hope this helps!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cornshells are tough AF and we're shit at chewing.

[–] NABDad 21 points 1 month ago (2 children)

If you really want to discover something crazy, swallow some raisins whole.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Do they come out as grapes

[–] gibmiser 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

God I hope they re-hydrate and come out plump and poo water filled

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

Pop 'em right back in your mouth for a juicy treat!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

I don't particularly care for raisins but I might have to go get some to satisfy my curiosity.

The T-1000 variant

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'm allergic to corn, so I don't know if this is true, but if I pooped a food that was still whole I'd consider not eating it again.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 month ago

The outside of the kernel is very fibrous, so when chewing it's less about breaking down the outside and more like popping the insides out of its skin. We need all kinds of fiber in our diets, so the outside of the corn kernels passing through is just fine.

[–] robocall 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What happens if you eat corn? Can you eat tortilla chips?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Not who you asked, but I'm allergic to corn. Tortilla chips, cornbread, anything made with corn starch, cornmeal (including pizza because people use that on the bottom of pizza), some gluten free and some vegan foods have triggered allergic reactions for me.

It's extra fun trying to find food I can eat that I haven't made myself, because I'm also allergic to wheat and eggs.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

You actually make me feel better about my recent celiac diagnosis. I'm sorry you've got to deal with all that though, that sounds terrible.

Are you allergic to wheat or are you also celiac?

I auto downvote anything with fucking censorship

[–] TotallynotJessica 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This censorship is so weak that I honestly think it's parody at this point.

Edit: Also just so you know, your downvotes on 196 are just a shout into the void, considering blahaj has them disabled <3

you're supposed to chew 30 times, but who has time for that

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

You need my one neat trick.
