Monkey Chow Diaries: Day 3

The third video diary entry is now available on the Monkey Chow main page. After 3 days of chow, what is my biggest problem? Hint: it's poop related.

Would you feel more full if you weren't eating diet Monkey Chow?

Hint: it's poop related.

You're not flinging it, are you?

I notice that you have focused quite a bit on your poop. My coworkers and I were wondering if you would give us a consistency report - brick, soft serve, etc... You can refer to us as the poop bandits in your next video if you choose to respond. Best of luck to you and hang in there, but don't hang like that last nugget that gets caught.

Is the poop-related thing because you've got a heightened sense of smell or because it actually smells worse?

You should definitely set up something to which people can donate. Whether it's so you can buy yourself some food, or whether you'd rather have it donate directly to a monkey-related charity!

Firstly, i must congratulate you in the name of science, you have got soemthign real here.

as a student i could actually see myself doing this around the time i have to buy textbook for the next semester, i am seriously considering this a real option if things ever get bad enough.

with the poop, i once conducted a similar experiement in high school where i ate a bag of coffee to increase my metabollic rate, for about a week everything i saw, touched, taste and smelt, was coffee. after leaving the bathroom people would wonder why it smelled like someone was brewing a latte in the toilet bowl.

as for the economics of your experiment (a am an economic student, or aspirning economist), you also did neglect in your costing the oppurinity cost, of all the time you save in preparing food, cooking food, shooping for food. which you can price at your given wage for analysis purposes.

i do like to experiment and wish to keep up, who knows you might win a great scientific prize

Your experiment is fascinating, but you need to provide some physical evidence so that your audience can peer-review you.

What would be most helpful to us ( as scientists ) would be video and/or pictures of this "poop" that you often refer to. Being able to quantify the quality and consistency of the elements involved in your experiment can only help to serve the general welfare that you obviously set out to benefit with your "Monkey Chow" endeavor.

seems odd you'd be spooked by the animal fat ingredient then crave cheeseburgers.

Just out of curiosity, how does eating a banana sound to you right now? Good, I would expect. Perhaps a steady diet of monkey chow is why monkey's really love bananas...

According to ZuPreem you ought to be eating a pound per 35 lbs of bodyweight. If you weigh 169 lbs, you should be eating 5 lbs a day.

Best Wishes.

I think I just about lost it when I watched your video journal on Youtube when you made the realization that your poop smells just like the kibble, or your kibble smells just like your poop. Kinda reminds me of those retro Reeses peanut butter commercials, "Hey who put the chocolate in my peanut butter?"

Good luck on your endeavor!
