There needs to be a word for someone who's one level above vegan and refuses to eat anything that is or was living.

@black6_ I was thinking about if its even possible... should be possible in theory, in practice wouldnt be practical. A few miltivitamins and some lab grown protein, carbs, and fat and your good to go :)

@freemo @black6_ well, those would be synthesized using oil which at some point long ago was something living :P

@bonifartius @black6_ Should be possible to synthesize oil from non-living base components. How you would make sure the atoms themselves never existing as part of life I dunno, but as long as you get it from a non-organic source it should be a fairly safe bet.

@freemo @black6_ well, mineral oil directly was something living some time back.. ;)maybe we need to capture an asteroid for this :P

@freemo It's possible, but how far down do you go? Bacteria cover everything. It's an interesting thought experiment, but there's no way around extinguishing some form of life when eating.

@bonifartius Yea obviously for the idea to work mineral oil wouldnt work. Interesting mineral oil is mostly safe to eat but your body cant absorb it so its just a laxative. That said chemically you should be able to synthesize proper fat from just water and air.@black6_

@black6_ I mean yea, in practice its not really doable in any reasonable way... but with enough money and sterile base materials it should be possible... you would need pure (no bacteria) water and CO2 and a sterile place probably a few chemicals, and it could be done :)Reminds me of that time NileRed made the most chemically pure cookie ever made, evne the fat was synthasized. He said it was absolutely disgusting.

@freemo I don't think it's possible because of our big brains. We all feed on death and it is delicious.

@freemo @black6_ guess it won't kill you, but some of the organic compounds & heavy metals in there probably aren't really healthy as well :Pof course you can, that's what plants do! :D

@bonifartius mineral oils is a distillate process. While I am sure it needs some additional cleaning for the stuff that is fit for humans, it shouldnt have any sort of heavy metals in it. Mercury is the only heavy metal that distills at any reasonable temperature but if that was present it would wind upin a different fraction than the mineral oil.But yea, regardless im sure there is some additional cleaning and/or processing for the mineral oil intended to be used for humans.@black6_

@freemo @black6_ ah, sure the distilled stuff for medicinal use and the like is probably pretty clean! )

@bonifartius All mineral oil is distilled, some (I dont know) may go through extra levels of cleaning. I do know that some is meant for human consumption, which should be fairly pure. What I dont know is how much cleaning the stuff for human consumption goes through compared to the normal distillate.But yea all mineral oil is a fractional distillate from the same process that produces gasoline (just a higher temperature fraction than gas)@black6_

@freemo @black6_ i think some confusion was because of a false friend, i thought about petroleum/crude oil because it's "Mineralöl" in german!

@bonifartius Ahh yes, crude and mineral are different in english. Mineral oil is similar to crude in thickness, but it is purified, so it is clear, and has all the lower fractional volatile stuff removed as well. Its usually used as a laxative, topically, or even a lubricant. It has no nutritional value though.@black6_

@bonifartius And "öl" in Swedish means "beer". 😉 @freemo @black6_
