Not necessarily diabetes. On the short term, you only get sugar shock.

[-] prenatal_confusion@feddit.org 3 points 23 hours ago

Don't take away our nice ~~joke~~ diabetes!

[-] P1k1e@lemmy.world 65 points 2 days ago

DIABIDUS!!!!

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 43 points 2 days ago

One of my patients almost died from acute onset pancreatitis after eating 4 pounds of fudge in one sitting, so this could be a trick question.

So, 3.9 pounds is the safe limit

[-] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago

That is some dedication to finishing that fudge. Holy shit

[-] The_v@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

4 lbs... Seriously how?... I can hardly get through 1oz. It's too much sugar.

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 10 points 2 days ago

I believe he has some substance abuse issues with alcohol. A lot of alcoholics can get some wires crossed when it comes to sugary foods.

[-] Smoogs@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

Yeah that’s why one of my relatives had to switch to Diet Coke when starting AA

[-] prenatal_confusion@feddit.org 2 points 23 hours ago

Is that a alcoholic specific thing or a addiction general thing? Such as people with predispositions for addictive behavior?

[-] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 5 points 23 hours ago

It's typically Alcohol specific, and usually when people are trying to quit. Alcohol and sugar utilize a similar dopamine pathway and alcohol metabolizes into sugar so it can develop into a parallel addiction and metabolic dependency.

[-] The_v@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

Lots of alcohol plus 4lbs of sugar, ouch.

Wouldn't that also potentially mess up the kidneys as well?

In the long run I'm sure, but most kidney issues are a secondary symptom of cardio vascular disease and diabetes, really anything that elevates your blood pressure a bunch.

Are we talking about American candy bars or European candy bars? .... because if it's in Texas, the child is going to have instant diabetes and will probably lose both their feet ... if it's in Switzerland, they'll probably break their fingers trying to snap that many Toblerone bars

[-] hraegsvelmir@ani.social 2 points 1 day ago

If Bob ate 29 Toblerone bars in one setting, I think it's safe to assume he's just chomping off each section straight from the bar.

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The tips of those toblerones will probably pierce their intestines

[-] JennaR8r@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The math problem simply states that Bob ate the candy. Doesn't matter if he broke his fingers in the process. He ate the candy.

[-] atopi@piefed.blahaj.zone 7 points 2 days ago

we dont know how long it took to eat those candy bars

maybe those were eaten in 5 years

[-] blockheadjt@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 days ago
[-] MeowerMisfit817@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Some of them were expired when ate, even.

[-] BillyClark@piefed.social 12 points 2 days ago

For any young'uns out there who don't get the reference, the answer is, "diabeetus."

[-] MeThisGuy@feddit.nl 2 points 2 days ago

naw, that's clearly John Bolton

[-] WhyIHateTheInternet@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I got to work with that guy on set of a show. He was super cool and down to earth. Wouldn't stop preaching about diabetes but he was cool.

[-] Zephorah@discuss.online 8 points 2 days ago

I still see him in the shack in Antarctica claiming to be all better now.

[-] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 4 points 2 days ago

A pool of vomit at his feet.

[-] baahb@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 days ago

I didn't eat any of MY candy bars. I still have 36. Y'all just have fewer between you now.

[-] jlow@slrpnk.net 2 points 2 days ago

I don't know but his dentist will be very rich.
