Inedible as in anything that isn't food (ranging from something that would be dangerous, like glass, poisonous plants, or uranium, to something that is safe to eat but unpleasant with no nutritional value, like cardboard.) Eating the thing will be safe and painless.

You can already mostly safely eat those, it was one of my party tricks at my previous job. Don't follow medical advice on the internet, ofc, myself included.

C batteries. Had a dream once about eating em. They were chewy and had a nice tang.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

An aircraft carrier, including all the seamen. I'm famished.

I have a weird attraction to the look of fairly hot things. I have always wanted to eat the orange coals you get at the end of a campfire. I would also take that orange gooey looking lava.

[–] catbum@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

Gouache paint pigments. Cadmium red, cobalt blue... I want all the colors inside me!

^hehe^

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Marbles.

Unless I only get one, in which case: a giant marble.

Alright, just a sun.

Can I pick one collective thing? Because I would eat the capitalist class.

[–] BlackLaZoR@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I would eat one bitcoin

[–] AmazingSUPERG@thelemmy.club 5 points 3 days ago

A CD. Pick my favourite album and chow down.

That depends. If I eat "prosperity" with the goal of becoming prosperous, will I become prosperous? Or will I just digest it & poop it out?

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

You will have the most prosperous poop of all time. You, yourself, will remain normal.

[–] gwl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 days ago

I think the latter

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 6 points 3 days ago

That guy's wife

[–] DeathsEmbrace@lemmy.world 6 points 3 days ago

A Microsoft data center
