This post made me hungry

EDIT: This is not proof that I'm a zombie

EDIT 2: To clarify, I am a zombie, but it's my lack of a pulse and my green skin that prove that

That’s because the apparatus described above uses roughly 20% of total caloric intake despite only making up about 2% of body weight.

This also changes through the lifespan. For infants it’s more like 60% of caloric intake

And for 79-year-olds it's apparently more like 0% of caloric intake.
