Are you trying to gauge interest in turning Bachelor Chow into a legitimate product?

[–]CyborgDragon[S] 370 points371 points ago

Maybe...

[–]nunobo 258 points259 points ago

I want in.

[–]Pyro627 104 points105 points ago

Me too. I'll put in an initial investment of all the money I have if you give me all the stock your company has.

[–]nunobo 208 points209 points ago

all the stock your company has.

Congrats. You now own a sandwich.

[–]Hyaku-Shiki 248 points249 points ago

Once again the conservative sandwich-heavy portfolio pays off for the hungry investor!

[–]nunobo 94 points95 points ago

A complete sandwich? Ha! You got fleeced! I would have settled for a hard roll with ketchup inside.

[–]whitchan 2 points3 points ago

Dinner rolls do surprisingly well with a little ketchup instead of butter. My American is showing, isn't it?

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points ago

It even pays out dividends! Hand me that knife.

[–]ra88 4 points5 points ago

You didn't even refrigerate it you spineless lobster!

[–]knivesngunz 14 points15 points ago

Hah! Joke's on you, he only had 28 cents to his name. You just sold him a sandwich for 28 cents!

[–]Lampmonster1 18 points19 points ago

If he only had 28 cents I'd probably be willing to just give him a sandwich. Probably a coke too.

[–]Pyro627 9 points10 points ago

To be fair, I only have $107 and change.

So it better be a damn good sandwich.

[–]Cloud6556 22 points23 points ago

Don't you worry about Bachelor Chow let me worry about blank.

[–]RussianFedora 2 points3 points ago

Blank? BLANK? You're not looking at the big picture here!

[–]ArticulatedGentleman 13 points14 points ago

What kind of stock?

Chicken, vegetable, beef?

[–]elastic-craptastic 20 points21 points ago

But o they come in different flavors of bachelor chow? Can I get pizza flavored? Or maybe Hawaiian pizza flavored? Brownie?

I would eat them if there were options. I couldn't take eating the same crap flavored thing day after day.

[–]qwop88 19 points20 points ago

Will there be Flavor?

[–]Asmodiar_ 27 points28 points ago

As a bachelor I would appreciate this.

[–]jasenlee 8 points9 points ago*

He could be a robot overload from the future who is gauging the tolerance levels of certain human bloodlines to put up with eating crap while we serve as meat batteries to support their existence.

If you answer in a positive fashion your family's bloodline may be allowed to continue on as you won't be breeding future troublemakers.

Or it could be the Bachelor Chow thing.

They already make them. They're called Cheerios.

[–]GeneralWarts 112 points113 points ago

Son, your mother knows what's best and if she's trying to eat you I'm sure there's a good reason.

[–]dueljester 30 points31 points ago

Its not my fault she's to fat to get into the wheel. She ate my left foot, and I still hobble along. Stop making excuses for her.

[–]CyborgDragon[S] 55 points56 points ago

[–]Laezur 19 points20 points ago

What are you talking about I can buy a female hamster for like $6!

[–]richthegeek 32 points33 points ago

Yeah, except you have to buy a new one every time you have sex.

For $3000 that's about 10 times a week, or 1.4 times a day. Which I hope would be plenty, but I honestly don't know how satisfying hamster vag is. I guess it's time to post a question in r/sex and r/askscience...

[–]Veskah 21 points22 points ago

r/asksexyscience?

[–]mk72206 472 points473 points ago

Monday through Friday? absolutely. One less thing to worry about during the workweek. Weekends I would indulge though.

[–]PsyanideInk 187 points188 points ago

My thoughts exactly.

Food, and the exploration of all things gastronomic, is one of the 2 most rewarding pursuits I've ever experienced. Except when you've worked until 5, gone to the gym, and are trying to make it over to the pub to meet up with friends... then it's just a pain in the ass.

[–]AwkwardCough 177 points178 points ago

We're pretty close with some of the healthier cereals out there. Just throw in some protein, a little hot water, and baby you've got a stew going.

[–]meatloaf_man 198 points199 points ago

And a baby? You monster!

[–]Puresowns 59 points60 points ago

Gotta get the protein somewhere.

[–]bumblefox 1 point2 points ago

[–]jimjones3d 8 points9 points ago

There's still some meat on that bone....

[–]mcallister24 44 points45 points ago

Exactly. I would use the pellets to quell my hunger and with the money I save I would eat out a lot more then I do now to satisfy my taste buds

[–]mk72206 35 points36 points ago

my reason has nothing to do with cost. it has everything to do with convenience.

[–]mcallister24 5 points6 points ago

I was thinking they go hand in hand. It is rather convenient to get a lot of food for cheap. Sacrificing flavor (presumably) for quantity and cutting down on preparation time. In my mind this would "earn me the right" to dining out more often then I do now because of money saved and the desire for a delicious meal.

[–]Nyaos 14 points15 points ago

Ah man, that's exactly what I don't need. Take away another joy from the middle of the week, good food to look forward to, and I'd feel like my life would become even less meaningful.

[–]cssphan 41 points42 points ago

Just Ctrl+F'ed for this link - reading that blog has CONFIRMED i could never be happy eating "human kibble" for the rest of my days.

[–]lovebludgeon 40 points41 points ago

The "Primate Food" that guy eats looks like it's geared towards creatures with more robust teeth than your average human, what if it was a complete nutritionally balanced food designed specifically for people?
Imagine if it were more like a big bowl of cereal that was your complete nutritional requirement for the day, and it was bacon flavoured.

[–]cssphan 43 points44 points ago

Soft meat-like pellets (kept moist within the packaging) that had faint hints of bacon, but were mostly composed of beef-jerky like scents and tastes might change my mind.

Throw in teriakyi, steaksauce, maybe some peppered flavors and I could be in for the long haul here...

[–]lovebludgeon 25 points26 points ago

I think you pretty much just described dog food. Throw on the sauce of your choosing and you're good to go.

[–]cssphan 13 points14 points ago

My dogs used to eat food with "gravy" that magically appears when you mix water into the mix.

As a human I found the cold mix repelling, but shoot...heat that shit up in the microwave and the dogs are eating better than me.

[–]the-pessimist 1 point2 points ago

So... this, and a little bit of this.

Hmm... I think I'll stick with fast food when feeling lazy/broke.

[–]Horaenaut 24 points25 points ago

After reading this thread title I looked for someone to post this. After watching this a couple years back I tried to get my roommates to chip in for monkey pellets, but they refused. I then offered to buy the pellets and we would all eat them; they refused again. I knew it would be impossible to eat monkey pellets alone if my roomates were all eating buffalo chicken sandwiches.

My roomates have no respect for a man trying to replicate scientific experiments with a broader test subject base.

[–]PopeJohnPaulII 27 points28 points ago

Your roommates are lame. If we ever become roommates I'll live on Monkey Chow with you.

[–]Pufflekun 19 points20 points ago

TIL that the fact that I don't want to eat Monkey Chow makes me lame.

yeah, put me down for a quarter bag.

[–]bobbym529 6 points7 points ago

We feed these to our rehab squirrels because of the balanced nutrition. I read the blog while reading up about them. Tried one. Not awful. Wouldn't want to live on them. Kind of triscuit taste to them.

I'm not sure if that's impressive or entirely normal

[–]arnie_apesacrappin 38 points39 points ago*

I wish he hadn't tried to go vegan with the Dilberito. Maybe have a vegan option, but no meat and no cheese doesn't seem like the best option when trying to target people that are willing to eat a frozen burrito.

Also, there was the issue of its vitamin content. It was enriched so that a single burrito would give the consumer a 100% RDA of several different vitamins. I remember reading that some of those weren't good to have 200% of your RDA. So there becomes a problem of what does one eat when one can't have a second Dilberito that day.

Edit: I posted a question in AskScience. Based on the Dietary Reference Intake link that was provided, two Dilberitos per day put one near the upper limits for Magnesium, Niacin (B3), Calcium and Folate (B9). Three Dilberitos per day put one about the limit for Magnesium, Niacin (B3), Calcium and Folate (B9) and put one near the upper limits for Vitamin A and Zinc as well.

[–]rampart103 7 points8 points ago*

for most vitamins (I actually dont know of one that isn't like this) the RDA is a bare minimum. You won't hurt anything unless you're superdosing, like 100x the RDA, and that's not even true for all of them.

edit: so maybe 3.5x for vitamin A

[–]arnie_apesacrappin 4 points5 points ago

This is from a really long time ago, but I think one of the qualms was about it having 100% RDA of iron. As in if you had two of them, you didn't want to get 200% RDA of iron. I don't really remember, this was an internet thread from close to ten years ago. I actually asked this in askscience one time when the subject of bachelor chow came up, but no one answered.

[–]rampart103 3 points4 points ago

http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/iron/

There's a good resource. Looks like you don't want 400% of it. Vitamin A was lower than I thought too.

I think some of this just applies to supplement sources. If you eat Vitamin A in food form, what you're getting is just a precursor that won't get converted if your body has enough. Other things may be different though.

[–]fuckyoubarry 1 point2 points ago

I invented an omelet that has 100% of everything. It was like a couple eggs, a can of salmon, some beans, some spinach. Maybe some other stuff. It was just a big ass omelet with 2000 calories, all your vitamins, and a shitload of Omega 3 fatty acids. I could cook it in 10 minutes and eat it in 5 and get on with my day. I could look up the recipe or reverse engineer it if anyone's interested. Also, you can go fuck yourself Barry.

[–]SamiLMS1 7 points8 points ago

Yup, as soon as I saw vegan it was clear why it failed. The majority of people are turned off by the world vegan and really who can blame them.

[–]GhostedAccount 0 points1 point ago

Also vegans probably don't want to eat stuff that is artificially enriched. They are going to want natural stuff.

[–]willworkforicecream 2 points3 points ago

That was a real thing? I thought it was just a joke and a flash game on the website.

[–]Nagashizuri 44 points45 points ago

I might get a bag just to have around for the lazy days when you just cannot be bothered cooking proper food for yourself, but for the rest of my life? Not a chance. I like good food too much to ever settle permanently for something so devoid of soul.

[–]Aerora 7 points8 points ago

Cereal

Nutritionally complete.

Not quite.

Heck no.

Cheap, tasty, nutritionally balanced.

Pick 2.

[–]kobescoresagain 59 points60 points ago

Grow your own garden and you can have all three. The thing they missed was time. Time is why people eat poorly more than cost.

[–]simperingfool 62 points63 points ago*

Time is a cost though.

Edit: I don't disagree with you though. Preparing your own tasty and nutritious food costs much less money than buying it prepared for you.

[–]Kunkletown 7 points8 points ago

Eh, dunno about that. A garden is only going to supply me with greens. Where do I get my protein and primary source of energy? I'd probably want livestock too.

[–]omplatt 18 points19 points ago

Just put some ketchup on it. Ketchup has natural mellowing agents and is just the right amount of spice.

[–]Pyro627 21 points22 points ago*

Technically, it's not punishment, it's because you can eat it without utensils. They give it to people who stab the guards with sporks, essentially.

[–]Pufflekun 13 points14 points ago

Right, because you have to use utensils to eat anything else. If it wasn't a punishment, they'd just give them sandwiches.

Also, the Wikipedia article OP linked to shows has "disciplinary loaf" under the list of alternate names. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't call it that if it wasn't a punishment.

[–]zombiepirate 16 points17 points ago

You've never given anyone a disciplinary loaf before?

[–]songjacked 20 points21 points ago

I had a roomie who worked as a prison guard and brought a Nutraloaf home to try out. It looks like a dense loaf of vegetarian shit, and probably smells the same. There's no real flavor to it, but it somehow has this terrible degree of unpleasantness all the same.

[–]GreenGlassDrgn 29 points30 points ago

[–]dontfryyourbrain 4 points5 points ago

spoiler alert man come on!

[–]Battlesheep 3 points4 points ago

maybe if you add salt, pepper, creole seasoning, steak sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, or any number of condiments to get over the bland flavor?

also, its not a punishment in itself, but given to violent prisoners because it can be served without utensils, because utensils can be sharpened and used as a weapon

[–]confused_teen 407 points408 points ago*

i tried my dogs food two days ago, just a few kibbles, now i'm starting to feel some hair come in around my butthole. is this related? anyone else eaten some dog food and gotten a hairy butthole?

EDIT: it's wispy.

[–]Occams_Beard_Trimmer 192 points193 points ago

Reminds me of this joke:

Yesterday I was buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for my dog at Wal-Mart and was about to check out. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog. On impulse, I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, and that I was starting the Purina Diet again. Although I probably shouldn't, because I'd ended up in the hospital last time, but that I'd lost 50 pounds before I awakened in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms.

I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is to load your pants pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry and that the foods nutritionally complete so I was going to try it again. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in the line was by now enthralled with my story.)

Horrified, she asked if I ended up in intensive care because the dog food poisoned me. I told her no; I stepped off a curb to sniff an Irish Setter's ass and a car hit us both.

I dunno, does it taste good? I'd eat it for a few meals a week if I was hungry and didn't feel like cooking.

...I mean, if it's as convenient as cereal, and is filling and healthy...

Yeah sure. Taste/texture is pretty important though.

[–]CyborgDragon[S] 8 points9 points ago

Like dog food, I'd imagine it would have varying brands with different tastes, textures, and hardness.

depends on how it tastes and looks

[–]vanuhitman 6 points7 points ago

EMT here. This man speaks the truth. Your bowels were/are in dire straits, seek help immediately. Black tar coming out of your ass is never a good thing, and is usually partially digested blood... or you ate tar. Either way, an ER visit is in your bunghole's best interest.

Do you know me? I've been ranting about Human Kibble for weeks now.

You sell it as a diet plan.

The genius is that if you go 100%, after a few weeks I doubt you'd miss food much anymore. You just give up eating.

The hard part about dieting is trying to decide what to eat with every... single.. meal...

Human Kibble solves this problem! You just eat kibble!

It's genius.

[–]appropriate-username 23 points24 points ago

Take it one step further--with food additives you can make them taste pretty much however you want to. So you're talking about pellets that can be anything from roast beef to chicken soup that take a few minutes to eat, require no cleanup and are nutritionally rich. Fuck yeah I would eat them.

[–]Willie_Main 20 points21 points ago

No way. I love food. I love preparing it and enjoying it. Food is an adventure and I want to experience as much of it as possible.

I'd get bored eating Bachelor Chow regularly. Although I could see the health benefits, moderation is key. I love fried foods covered in cheese but I know not to eat that every day.

[–]tehaleks 7 points8 points ago

I'd consider it, it would be nice to have someone manage my food intake - my dogs are in amazing shape, unfortunately I have terrible will-power and ... well I just ordered pizza for breakfast.

I actually used to drink meal replacement shakes all the time, the only real meals I'd have were breakfast and dinner. They were a bit pricey though.

Y'know what this will lead to right?

Basement dwellers become less burdensome on their parents due to cheap, filling, balanced food. Also, parents pay less in hospital bills.

[–]dustyskulls 1 point2 points ago

Never. Not if you paid me to eat them. Food is amazing, and it's shocking that anyone would consider giving it up like this. I would go as far to call cooking an art form.

If you agree with that last statement, then think of it this way? Would you be content listening to nothing but Coldplay for the rest of your life so that no one would ever make fun of your music tastes? No, I would not. People can think what they like about me, I'm not giving up my sense of taste.

[–]sovietferret 5 points6 points ago

Nope. Making and eating good food is something I truly enjoy. Nothing beats a great meal with friends and family. Granted, not every meal is something I fully enjoy as there just isn't enough time. But I couldn't eat the same thing for the rest of my life.

[–]elapid 6 points7 points ago*

I don't feed dried food to my dog as I have seen how it's made and what goes into it. Also my dogs are working dogs and I do actually work them but they are unable to perform well enough on dry food.

If the dry food for dogs is crap the human one will be too. The only reason to feed dry food would be convenience and cost saving. I do think that maybe some kind of dried pellet food should be developed for famine and disaster areas though.

There are much stricter guidelines for human food. Also, have you seen how some food is made? It's absolutely revolting.

[–]geekgirlpartier 12 points13 points ago

No

[–]KrakNup 2 points3 points ago

Oh, hell no. To lose that cheesy creaminess and bacony goodness for the rest of my life? For some dog pellets? Are you kidding me?

[–]travistravis 2 points3 points ago

Wait, pretty much what I see when you say this is Cheerios, with more nutrition. If such a thing were possible, yes. I'd eat cereal every day.

Pretty sure this might work: http://www.zupreem.com/our-food/primates/primate-diet-dry

if it feeds other great apes we could probably get away with it for awhile

It's people!! Soylent Green is made out of people!!!! They're making our food out of people! Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for food! You've gotta tell them -- you've gotta tell them!

WE DO... its called "weight-loss shake". i usually last a week before i start chewing on people

[–]HoboViking 0 points1 point ago

Yes, I would.

[–]portnux 3 points4 points ago

Sure, why not? Food is food.

[–]stinkpiqle 1 point2 points ago

Make it taste like bacon!

[–]irisjolie 2 points3 points ago

Or pizza, apparently.

[–]anon47 2 points3 points ago

Food pellets for humans? Isn't that rice?

[–]msbrooklyn 1 point2 points ago

what about the guy who ate monkey pellets? didnt he end up loosing a lot of weight because the stuff tasted and smelled so bad?

[–]shutaro 0 points1 point ago

Only if I owned a flying car.

[–]CyborgDragon[S] 4 points5 points ago

They exist. They just aren't on the market because, could you imagine policing that traffic?

[–]LOFTIE 7 points8 points ago

They exist, but are actually car shaped planes. FTFY

[–]Vitalstatistix 1 point2 points ago

No. I mean, I guess I would have some sitting around in case of emergencies or something like that, but why would you want to get rid of food?? It's one of the best things about life!

[–]memphis138 1 point2 points ago

Probably not. It would just reach a certain point where I would want to stick a cheeseburger inside me one way or the other

[–]theuniverselashesout 2 points3 points ago

one way or the other

Stick with the normal way. Trust me.

[–]whiteouTT 1 point2 points ago

It's much healthier than the Ramen diet I have now so maybe not the rest of my life, but for when I am broke yeah

[–]saffronSpaceship 1 point2 points ago

I would do this for sustinence as long as there's still good food to indulge in.

[–]AnUnknown 1 point2 points ago

I would be easily convinced to buy this product, keep it in the house, and potentially even eat it regularly.

I would need an awful lot more convincing to go so far as to eat it exclusively.

[–]insideoutduck 0 points1 point ago

I'm going to university in September and I hate cooking so something like that would come in handy. If it tasted nice I would probably do it, although I would want to eat normal food sometimes too.

[–]CoolBeansWeakSauce 0 points1 point ago

Nope. I need variety.

And they pretty much make this already. It's called cereal.

[–]haliker 1 point2 points ago

Isn't that what we have labeled cereal?
