OT - Cadbury Eggs

Post by Quincy Varnish »

How long could a person survive by exclusively eating Cadbury eggs?

Is it possible such a diet could make one superhuman, or instill magical powers?

I asked ChatGPT, "how long can someone survive eating only Cadbury eggs?"

Here's ChatGPT's answer:
Ah, the classic "Cadbury egg diet" — deliciously disastrous. 🍫🥚

**Short answer:** Not long — *maybe* a few weeks tops, but with some serious health issues kicking in pretty fast.

Here’s why:
---
### 🔬 **Nutritional Breakdown of a Cadbury Creme Egg (UK version):**
- **Calories:** ~177
- **Sugar:** ~26.5g
- **Fat:** ~6g
- **Protein:** ~1g
- **Vitamins/minerals:** Almost none
- **Fiber:** Basically zero
---
### 🧠 What Would Happen?
#### **Days 1–3:**
- Sugar highs and crashes galore
- You’d feel energized, then sluggish, moody, and probably nauseous

#### **Week 1:**
- Your body would start missing essential nutrients (no vitamin C, no fiber, no protein)
- Constipation from no fiber
- Risk of hypoglycemia between sugar crashes
- Skin might get oily or break out

#### **Week 2:**
- Your muscles start to break down due to lack of protein
- You’d be super fatigued, irritable, possibly dehydrated (sugar pulls water into the gut)
- You’d likely start losing weight, but not in a healthy way

#### **Week 3+:**
- Signs of **scurvy** (vitamin C deficiency): fatigue, bleeding gums, bruising
- Immune system would be wrecked
- Liver and pancreas under extreme stress
- Possibly pre-diabetic or insulin resistant
- Risk of collapse from electrolyte imbalances
---
### 👎 Bottom Line:
You could *technically* survive for a couple of weeks eating only Cadbury eggs, but your body would be in full panic mode. Beyond that, you're looking at serious health consequences — and potentially fatal ones if you kept pushing it.

But hey… your Easter basket would be legendary. 😅
Sounds fun!

That’s based on zero medical research. Pure conjecture.

Also… I never knew ChatGPT had a sense of humor, and find it mildly disturbing.

If I had to die by sugar it'd be by those Reese's peanut butter eggs. OMG those are good.

Well, if I could add some kind of protein/vitamin type DRINK, while technically only EATING Cadbury eggs, I think I could go a couple months anyway. I do have a sweet tooth ................... but although slightly tempted, I'll currently pass, lol.
Maybe if I develop a terminal illness with a Dr. predicted only couple months to live diagnosis, I'll reconsider.

That was a direct copy/paste of the ChatGPT result. Like you, I was somewhat surprised that ChatGPT threw in the little joke at the end (complete with emoji).
