My gf and I are having a debate (inspired by https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/crmz42pjpnjo), could a single person consumer 22 tons of cheese in their lifetime? over 80 years it clocks in at a little under 1.5lbs of cheese a day, which I think is probably doable but my gf thinks it would have too many negative effects. Irish people apparently ate like 5-10lbs of potatoes a day during the heyday of monoculture there, so I can't imagine 1.5lbs of cheese a day being too much for a person even if it is a lot more calorically dense.
>>20964054>What is the theoretical upper limit of daily cheese consumptionwhen your shits are like passing concrete christmas trees, cut back.
>>20964062I'd love to see where your concrete Christmas trees come from. With my penis
>>20964054Just going off vibes it feels like you're both right. You could probably eat that much cheese but you would become obese very quickly, and you might even start to develop lactose intolerance. Cheese is more about quality over quantity in my humble opinion.
>>20964070Your humble opinion isn't worth gargling on my balls. Thats for your mouth
>>20964065hope you get monkey pox, homo.
>>20964054Tell her I said fuck off.
>>20964079I'll give you monkey pox. Big boi
>>20964072Sorry, I don't really get what you're trying to say? OP asked an open question so I gave my honest answer to the best of my ability. No need to be rude.
>>20964070yeah I guess you would definitely get fat eating that much cheese
excess calcium can cause kidney stones
>>20964054
>>20964054It’s a lot of calories, about 2900 for 1.5lbs based on Tillamook Medium Cheddar.
>>20964054I believe mongols are the ones to check for this, apparently cheese is a large part of their daily diet. I’d say they would represent the realistic upper limit.
>>20964275Of course their cheese is closer to yogurt than cheddar or anything like that.
>>20964123Ah not if you eat ONLY the cheese
>>20964054i think 1lb a day is easily possible
Studies of pregnant women and ultra-endurance athletes suggest humans can digest about 2.5 times their resting energy expenditure, which (for an average person) is about 5000 kcal, or nearly 3 lbs of cheese. Of course, you could swallow more if you wanted to.
>>20964081wow, thanks anon :)
>>20964079based faggot hater
>>20964054Quark is cheese. Eat a cup and a half each morning and you've got 12 oz just for breakfast.Eat another 8 oz of cottage cheese with lunch.Include 4 oz of other cheeses in snacks and dinner.
>>20964070lactose intolerance is genetic (or due to injury), you don't just 'start getting it' from eating food
>>20964054you'd be ingesting 1.5-3 times the max rec of calcium and a ton of phosphorous too. Kidney injury potentially. Might be doable with a low calcium cheese.
>>20965116cottage cheese is a good idea to get some variety in there, and when you break it down like that I guess its not crazy. cup and a half of cheese and maybe a couple of eggs would be a hell of a breakfast every day>>20965301damn i didn't even consider too much calcium. i got so much milk propaganda as a kid it never crossed my mind that too much might be bad.
>>20964054You can probably do it but you would die from heart disease at some point. Love cheese but it's too much saturated fats
>>20965291You can still have a low-level of "intolerance" that goes unnoticed until exposure to a large-enough dose of cheese, after which your body says "fuck-off" and goes haywire to the smallest amount of it. Allergies can be worsened by continuous or massive exposure. Not common, but it happens.
>>20964054depends on the cheeses. if you eat cottage cheese mainly, no reason why you couldn't eat half a kg daily and get rest of your calories and nutrients from other sources.if you spend your whole calorie intake on 300-400g of fatty cheeses every day, you're going to get fucked
>>20964054I'll feed your gf 22 tons of my dick cheese
>>20964974you know we know that you know that we understand how you lust for cock right
>>20966513>y-you actually like me!saddest homo cope over being hated.
>>20964054>Generally, food stays in the stomach between 40 minutes to two hours>The maximum stomach volume in adults is between 2 and 4 litres, although volumes of up to 15 litres have been observed in extreme circumstances.Lets be generous and say you can pass 4 liters every 2 hours into the bowels. That makes 48 liters of cheese a day. Cheese weighs about 1.04kg per liter.We'll pretend that's a rounding error.So you only need to spend like 15 months eating cheese to hit your target. If you nap in between your 12 daily gorging sessions. We barely have to add any time to the total.
>>20966560Side note. Fluids should be given intravenously with added nutrients. A full time colonoscopy bag attendant is probably a good idea too. As is a catheter.
>>20966560somehow i don't think it would be possible to consume 48kg of cheese in a day
>>20966506I lold
>>20964054Unless you're eating fat free cheese (BLASPHEMY), the saturated fat content would probably be about 110-130g+ per day, which is 4x the daily reccomended limit of 30g, so you'd probably die before consuming the 22 tons.If you ate cheese daily from the age of 10 to 80 or 90 and ate 180g of something like feta (which is relatively lower ratio of sat fat to grams compared to mozerella and cheddar), clocking in at 30g saturated fat, you could eat probably 5-6 tons in a life time, but even at 30g every single day for years on end, there may still be potential health negatives, so you may not live that length and end up only consuming maybe 3-4 tons.The other option would be to consume as much cheese as possible daily and race the clock of death, which I still don't think you'd hit 22 tons before dying.
I think I eat about 150 grams of this per day, I buy about a kilo per week. 1.5 lb is an insane amount but you could try. You might die though
>>20964065the fuck are you, indian? why is everyone on this board so bad at dirty one-liners?
>>20964054Your fat ass would die of so many hilarious fat ass ways... believe it or not even nature agrees that obese untermensch must die.
>>20966547i won't even address that faggot it's not worth it
>>20964216>excess oxalate can cause calcium oxalate kidney stonesftfy moron
>>20966658saturated fat is not a problem even for CVD. thats old outdated and disproven
>>20967358>>20967412so is the cheese gonna fuck you up or not
>>20964054Potatoes have gut beneficial resistant starch and fiber, and exclusively water soluble C vitamin, so that's not a good comparison at all.
>>20965291many types of cheese don't have lactose
>>20964054If you are doing keto then you can't really eat too much.
>>20966658>ate 180g of something like feta (which is relatively lower ratio of sat fat to grams compared to mozerella and cheddar)Feta has a shitton of salt in it though, your blood vessels would rupture before you hit the 22 ton mark.
Tarare could do it
>>20967981He doesn't count and you know it.
Grate thread OP.
>>20964054Please get to this level, share photos. Just completely forgo any shame and embrace the cheese only way of life. I'm rooting for you.
since this is the cheese thread I'm just going to register my disdain in this fucking cheese. it is absolutely foul and smells and tastes like 5th day sweaty feet. fuck I spent a lot of money on this and I hate it. going right back to parmigiano reggiano. BLECH I says BLECH
>>20967956is it really more salt than the average american would have if they ate fast food daily?>>20968002I appreciate a gouda pun as much as the next guy anon, thanks!>>20968017I think if this thread has taught me anything its that 22 tons of cheese is probably not realistic for one person to consume, meaning the criminal in the article wasn't just a fatso looking to secure their supply
>>20966784laziness combined with abject stupidity
>>20966199here dingus, stop talking out of your ass
>>209640541.5 pounds of cheese is about 2400 calories a day so if you're not doing pretty significant labor you'll get fatBut I think a 6' sweat tradie or something would be fine.
>>20968162Eating a block of cheese while walking down the street on a public throughfare should be embraced as beautiful and powerful, not looked at as shameful gluttony. Help the world elevate their collective consciousness from patriarchal decency standards by supporting excessive cheese consumption in all venues of public discourse!>sending a package - 1 lb block of cheddar in hand>riding the metro to work - snack on a wedge of roaquefort>waking down the street - cheese wheel on head you're consuming with a specialized cheese spoon Anon, please start the cheese only revolution and help people get out of their prejudicial stigmas regarding public cheese consumption.
>>20969117>riding the metro to work - snack on a wedge of roaquefortthey actually do this in france
>>20969712I'm still waiting on pics from OP with novel ways him and the future ex wife are consuming cheese, or at least photos of the cheese he bought. It's like that Simpson's episode where Homer eats an entire Costco sleeve of kraft singles.
>>20969862lmao I do not plan to attempt this, but I was imagining the cheese thief in the article I linked might have been a criminal gourmand looking to secure his supply
>>20969999Nice quads.
>>20969092>nitpicking Yeah. Technically an allergy is not the same as intollerance, but an allergy can get worse (or start happening at all) with continuous large dose exposure to the alergen. And symptomatically it can be pretty simmilar. You feel like crap when you eat milk. Just in one case, you lack the enzime to digest it, and in another your immune system suddenly decides that milk is the enemy. That's life.
>>20971372I didn't think you could be allergic to milk, that must suck (unless there's something they can take to counteract it I guess)
>>20969712I have a hard time imagining this, the metro in Paris is so crowded at rush hour you can barely move your arms
>>20971372ok I see the issue. you are misunderstanding what lactose intolerance is because of the name. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_intolerance#DefinitionsIntolerances like lactose or sucrose (csid) are scientifically defined genetic disorders meaning you produce zero or few of the enzymes necessary to digest the nutrient. They are not similar to colloquial food intolerance where you have a normal genome but for whatever environmental or genetically indirect reason you experience inflammation, absorption etc.
>>20965291>you don't just 'start getting it' from eating foodyou do, if its an 'american' food
>>20969862when I have some baked brie this weekend anon I'll post it just for you
>>20965291I drank milk for 30 years. Sometimes had two or three yogurts a day. Now it gives me massive bloat and I feel like shit (intolerance).
>>20974341dairy products != lactose. lactose is a sugar in dairy which in the absence of the lactase enzyme is diagnosed as lactose intolerance.
>>20964054First of all, it sounds dumb to argue what is probably ficticious statistics to begin with. Most stats are made up on the spot. I couldn't eat a 16oz block of cheddar daily, let alone another .5lbs more, and I am sure no one else can do it either.It isn't about negative health effects though. It is just too boring. Only the lactose intolerant would avoid cheese in the first place. The consumers would need to be in their 50s or 60s or older to start showing what inflammation and fat was doing to their cardiovascular system, and that is as much as from genes and exercise as from diet.
>>20964054You're not likely to die of casein poisoning... a lot of it would depend on the cheese - how much diacetyl, what kind of lactones, cumulative effects.... half a pound of cheese at every meal is doable. I don't think this would kill you. 1.5lbs at a time, every day might.
How the fuck do you even fence 22 tons of artisanal cheese?
>>20974808Same way you fence 3t of maple syrup.>White people
>>20974808You don't, you use it to bribe the rats and mice of a city to fall under your dominion
>>20975125>>20975125become the rat king
>>20969862>>20974169Here is our baked brie with honey, which we will be enjoying with some crackers. I also have some habanero and jalapeno cheddar that I'm polishing off. After reading this article and contemplating how much a person could potentially consume I've definitely been upping my cheese consumption. Hope you are having nice weekends anons
>>20976111update: yesterday between us we consumed easily 1.5lbs of cheese and it was tasty. no ill effects noted. also damn nice trips me
>>20964062Holy fuck I never knew cheese did this to you until I went on a carnivore diet. One day I had to do a lot of driving, so I just had a bag of cheese curds and a few pepperettes with me in the car. In the next day or two it came out like a brick. Now I know how women feel like when they give birth.
>>20968130I wish my feet tasted this good desu senpai
>>20969117finally, a revolution i can get behind
>she thinks there is a limitLolLmao even
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/cheese-heists-1.7384611Bros, lock up your cheese if you know what's good for you. The cheese thieves are everywhere
