I would give you more context but I think its funnier if I leave it without.

[–] nickwitha_k@lemmy.sdf.org 136 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Because the undigested corn kernel husks are filled with poop.

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 78 points 1 week ago (2 children)

TIL I'm corn because I'm full of shit

[–] StupidBrotherInLaw@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago

If that's true, I'm an entire cob.

[–] 0x0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago

Well, you're certainly not a logician

[–] wolfpack86@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (4 children)

But like why did they fill up all plump and not just be like a deflated balloon.

[–] tooclose104@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Farts blow open the empty kernels like a plastic bag in the wind, then the poop gets in them

[–] wolfpack86@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Finally someone with a science based explanation

Most people dont chew more than 2-3 times so its kinda expected that stuff goes down unchewed

[–] MachineFab812@discuss.tchncs.de 33 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I compulsively chew at least 11 times in a vain attempt to diminish my obesity. My lack of a sizable beer gut(versus most of my peers) shows promise, nevermind that I basically don't drink, but I assure you, the corn does not care.

"Corn? When did I eats corn?"

[–] spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 week ago

This is the most alarming experience. Especially in the middle of winter when fewer things have corn readily included

[–] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 25 points 1 week ago (2 children)

At least find an uncensored version. Jesus. So dumb.

[–] frayedpickles@lemmy.cafe 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Seems like an extreme reaction to a reasonable request

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 49 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I have a flair for the dramatic

[–] frayedpickles@lemmy.cafe 16 points 1 week ago

Magikarp used splash

Cornshells are tough AF and we're shit at chewing.

[–] NABDad@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (2 children)

If you really want to discover something crazy, swallow some raisins whole.

[–] TheFriar@lemm.ee 48 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do they come out as grapes

[–] gibmiser@lemmy.world 30 points 1 week ago (1 children)

God I hope they re-hydrate and come out plump and poo water filled

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 7 points 1 week ago

Pop 'em right back in your mouth for a juicy treat!

[–] sangriaferret@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

I don't particularly care for raisins but I might have to go get some to satisfy my curiosity.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

The T-1000 variant

[–] AbsoluteChicagoDog@lemm.ee 11 points 1 week ago (5 children)

I auto downvote anything with fucking censorship

[–] TotallynotJessica@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

This censorship is so weak that I honestly think it's parody at this point.

Edit: Also just so you know, your downvotes on 196 are just a shout into the void, considering blahaj has them disabled <3

I'm allergic to corn, so I don't know if this is true, but if I pooped a food that was still whole I'd consider not eating it again.

[–] Duranie@literature.cafe 25 points 1 week ago

The outside of the kernel is very fibrous, so when chewing it's less about breaking down the outside and more like popping the insides out of its skin. We need all kinds of fiber in our diets, so the outside of the corn kernels passing through is just fine.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What happens if you eat corn? Can you eat tortilla chips?

[–] FoxyFerengi@lemm.ee 11 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Not who you asked, but I'm allergic to corn. Tortilla chips, cornbread, anything made with corn starch, cornmeal (including pizza because people use that on the bottom of pizza), some gluten free and some vegan foods have triggered allergic reactions for me.

It's extra fun trying to find food I can eat that I haven't made myself, because I'm also allergic to wheat and eggs.

[–] NotSteve_@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

You actually make me feel better about my recent celiac diagnosis. I'm sorry you've got to deal with all that though, that sounds terrible.

Are you allergic to wheat or are you also celiac?

you're supposed to chew 30 times, but who has time for that
