Wouldn't it be better and easier if instead of eating we took a food pill?!


Question:

Wouldn't it be better and easier if instead of eating we took a food pill?

No cooking, or shopping or washing up or having to think what to have every day. Hummm but what flavour pill shall i take today, oh well just a thought........


Answers:
If providing the body with nutrients was the only reason to eat, then yes, a daily pill would be easier. But eating provides sooo much more than that. It nourishes our need for flavor and texture and socialization and company and bonding with our families and friends.

what a fantastic idea totally agree

Wow, life would be so boring and uncreative that way.

It would be easier, but I enjoy cooking. True there are times when I'm too tired or just cant be bothered, that's why there are restaurants.

Ahhh naw
soilent green Please

Who would want to give up the texture, flavour and enjoyment of fajitas, curries, chinese, fish and chips.....for a pill?????

yeahh thats a good idea

It would not be any fun

Eating, in and of itself, is half the fun. Besides, pills don't taste very good. ;D

Ha! Yes it would be very easier!

I'd love it!

then we wouldnt enjoy food as much as before.
what would u do 4 thanksgiving, x-mas, or any other holiday???
no more bar-b-q's
that would suck

Well, I think that would be cool. You know, I could probably lose a little weight....

No its fun getting together with friend and going out to eat and you can't do that with a pill.

Certainly not!Connosseurs like me don`t do it for the meals alone.It`s all the shopping and prep that light our fire.

no not really. a pill would never have the real nutritional value of fresh ingredients and anyway eating is a great part of life - people should learn to make it as enjoyable as possible. It might also be "easier" if we were to replace our brains with microcomputers, might it not?

just a thought but a darn good one!

I'd rather have it the old way, Every night I sit down to dinner with my husband we talk about our day and make plans for the future. I enjoy spending that quality time with him. could do without the washing up though

yh food pill will make it easier but it won't taste great like the food

that would be horrible....we wouldnt be able to enjoy good food....then again.....i am a chef so my opinion is probably a bit biased

nice idea! it would solve a shed load of problems but in practise your body need the roughage to function properly IE your bowls would dry up just as your stomach would shrink etc leading to possible death

If I lost weight yes lol!

What an insane idea! How can you replace the joys of a eating a good meal with a pill. If you ask me (which you are), there is nothing that could replace the real stuff!

No NO NO NO NO, I love food I love eating food I love preparing food I love thinking about food lol. A pill would take all that away from me.!!!!
