Could a synthetic food be made that doesn't make the body produce waste?

[Cloaca Rimjob]

So a byproduct of eating food is obviously having to shit the bad parts of it out. Could a food be made were 100% of it is absorbed by the human body?

Getting really bored of shitting now tbh. It's such a productivity killer

 

[Shig O'nella]

Yes and no.
Yes, you could easily have food that is completely absorbed.
No, you'd still shit sometimes, because you'd still be shedding dead cells and mucous from your colon.

 

[Just A Butt]

also it would probably taste like shit without any added seasonings and flavorings and whatnot

no ur boring

 

[WhoBusTank69]

Closest thing is probably cheese puffs and cotton candy since they dissolve in your mouth. You still shit though because science.

 

[Peanut Butter in Peril]

Sounds like something you'd sell to pod people.

 

[NewRetroVagina23]

No, this would be a violation of the laws of thermodynamics.

 

[Muu]

I bet they will in the future once the Amazon science research ™ invent it so wagies won't waste time on the shitter.

Ever since I was a kid I've wanted to replace my lower digestive system with a nutrient canister that has a poo reservoir you could stop'n'swap at a gas station or wherever.

I'd still keep my stomach so I can drop acid and cheesecake and shit but that doesn't need to be an every day thing like it is now.

Aside from the obvious benefits you'd probably have space left over and you could keep your wallet and phone and a couple Mighty Max sets in there like girls do since they don't have pockets as I understand things

Yes, you could easily have food that is completely absorbed.

Dubious claim.

The closest thing would be purely soluble macronutrients, like glucose syrup or oil, but I think even some of that would reach the other side undigested. 100% efficiency is unlikely.

Even if we could, humans and even animals need roughage in their diet. You have to shit, you were born to do it.

Only if your diet is otherwise shit and you need it to conduct water through for lubrication. I haven't eaten a plant since the 90s. Just supplement with a stick of butter a day and you'll become more powerful than ever

No, 100% efficiency in any system of energy transfer is literally impossible, even biological ones.

 

[Oddjob OTP]

A lot of shit is byproduct of your bodies natural processes and not just undigested food left overs so this question is kind of meaningless even if it was chemically possible. The only way to avoid needing to shit is to be born into Kim Jong family.
