Cereal for supper
« on: April 27, 2005, 06:58:38 AM »
Why cant people buy a big bag of dry food and eat it for supper?  I'm interested in creating what is essentially a human version of dry dog-food.  It would be helpful for when there was no time to cook, on hiking trips, and for emergency use.

Any ideas?  Thinking of making the main ingredient from corn.  Adding soy or chicken for protein.

isn't cereal the same thing as what you are saying?  Besides...

there is another liberal working on a food for the masses allready... it comes in healthy green bars and contains an entire days nutrients and vitamins..  they are going to call it "soylent green" and it will be introduced next earth day.

No.  This food would be healthy and more suitable for supper (by not being so sweet).  Would also be cheap.  First came up for this idea when I was a competitive runner and wanted something quick and healthy to eat after a run.

Would like to have a 4 to 3 ratio of complex carbs to protein.  Maybe some omega 3 oils in it also.

there was a minor glitch in the first run of soylent green... It was found to made allmost entirely of whale and dolphin and used 4 barrels of oil to produce 100 lbs of soylent....  they are substituting spotted owls and the green one eyed newt and high sulfur coal tho.

I would prefer not to grind up people and put them into my food.  But human flesh is the most digestable protein for other humans to eat.

I think I could make something that tastes almost as good as a Fritos corn chip.  But with less fat, more protein, and omega 3 fats.

Eat Carbs earlier in the day, lessen consumption of them as the day goes on.

I have been saying we could cheapen the cost of prisons for years, just buy speeding up the death penalty, one apeal then to the kitchens.

Kill them humanly, then server them up to the rest of the inmates!
