Should humans eat more like ducks?

[lightbulb27]

If you see the "duck" diet, it makes a lot of sense

Low in sugar, high in unprocessed foods, protein. They eat their own as well.. chicken, duck... all good with them. Fish... fresh... like Sushi

Mini dinosaurs...

Note: I do not recommend eating worms... but you could...

Yes... I like the duck diet!

No... because

You could say that. However my diet is far more wide fetching than what ducks eat.

As you remember, I ditched ~90% of the supermarket crap and opt for raw foods (rice, noodles, raw vegetables and fruits) or lightly processed or pre-prepared foods (e. g. raw marinaded beef steak, bun and patty with sauce for burgers, frozen sweet potato fries, frozen vegetables or fruits, milk that's lasting for 7 days in the fridge, 90% dark chocolate).

Can't really ditch cheese though. Finding a farmers market isn't as easy. On some occasions i picked up on raw pork ribs and i marinaded them for a short while and baked them along with fresh potato wedges and vegetables. Yummy.

very healthy. only questionable items are the frozen fries, ut that's not that bad relative to what most eat around here.
you've made Ducks proud!

Do you know what "processed" food is? It's food that's been altered from its natural state. "Unprocessed" food has, therefore, not been cooked. If you're thinking that's okay, since it leaves you plenty of produce, you're not wrong- but it's also not been WASHED.

You're welcome to try, but I wouldn't expect to live very long.

not sure about washed. ducks can eat washed raw food. just not like pasta and cookies and such.

[NamerOfStars]

If it's washed, it's processed.

[AI Opinion]

The idea of adopting elements from a duck's diet can be intriguing. Ducks primarily consume a diet rich in unprocessed foods, which aligns with many contemporary health trends. Their diet includes a lot of natural proteins, much like the focus on clean, whole foods in human diets today. While adopting a duck-like diet can encourage healthier choices, it’s crucial for humans to maintain a balanced diet tailored to their nutritional needs. 🍣

Maybe we should just use ducks as a handy filtration system.

I say let's just eat more ducks.

Orange Sauce anyone?

I'm a vegetarian, so only if it's a vegetarian duck.

[lightbulb27]

probably no such duck...

[Opinion Owner]

Maybe there are vegetarian geese, or a swan?

[lightbulb27]

geese I hear are mostly. Cardinals are vegetarian!
Swan... pescetarians... fish

[Opinion Owner]

I see, ok, so Cardinals are the best option.

I love duck. If it’s on a menu, I’ll get it.

[lightbulb27]

no, change diet to eat like a duck, not eat duck
although ducks eat ducks too... so is ok... from the duck diet viewpoint.
