Contest (Participate!)

{ 12:54, 2008-Jan-8 } { 4 comments } { Link }
You are in a contest where you will live alone on a deserted island with an endless supply of water and one of the following. The goal of the contest is to live the the healthiest the longest, everyone starting on an even playing field and having the same set of bodily circumstances (if you will), Which of the following foods do you pick: corn, alfalfa sprouts, hot dogs, spinach, peaches, bananas, and milk chocolate.

You can only choose one.

And, just for fun- you can also bring one novelty item. This part is in no way related to the contest, I just want to know, for fun.

My novelty item is the an encyclopedia book for the letter S. I just don't want to be bored. I picked S because it's the first letter of my last name, and I'm sure it will contain fun topics like Socrates, Spain, Sex (and Syphilis), Sartre, Sweden, Science, Slavery, Sociology, Saturn (not to mention Space, The Solar System, The Sun...), String Theory (o,O), and the much overlooked St. Andrew. Holy hell, I really wish I had an encyclopedia- buy me one, donate one.. do et... !

Anyway, that's the contest and that's the game.

Your turn............

Hmm, I'll have to give this some thought. You said you would bring the novelty item, being an encyclopedia, but you didn't say what food you would bring.

Well, ya, I know. I'm not playing that part, haha. That part I'm just curious about what you would bring. I'm actually curious to see how the percentages will break down in comparison to a study. I've already read it, so I'm not playing that part.

Sputnik- that would also be in my encyclopedia I bet, I'm on a space kick tonight! ;)

ok, you said Milk chocolate, so I am going to assume you meant chocolate milk. So, it would be chocolate milk, because that would give you the protein you needed without all the extra crap.

My Novelty item would be...Solitaire. I have never in my live played that game, but it seems that many people do and it makes them happy.:)

I meant milk chocolate. So- it's all from a study in a book. It was meant to determine the ways we've been made to think about food. In the study the overwhelming amount of people picked bananas as their number one, and the next highest thing was spinach. Makes sense. I picked corn- haha, I thought indians/pilgrims right off, who knows why.. In reality the two things that would actually keep you the healtiest were hot dogs and milk chocolate.

I don't have the numbers on me and my internet is too touch and go at home right now that I'm not even gonna try to put them up. I just found it interesting. I did a poll of my own with it and got near the same % with the thirty or so people I asked.
