How long would you want to live?

How long can you live? Or...how long can you stay healthy? There's a big difference. Sprite is bad because of the high sugar content. Chicken dogs are mostly fat even though they're better than the beef ones. But why would anyone want to restrict their foods to just two things??? If this is a way to lose weight, it's not a good one. The more variety one eats the more essential nutrients you will get which is important in keeping your body and mind healthy!

You could survive for a pretty long time probably, but the side effects......
>>>
As the body builds itself according to its genetic plan, it will need certain vitamins and minerals in place at the right times. These nutrients will allow the chemical reactions to take place that will make skin, bone, muscle, etc. out of food.
If those nutrients are missing, the body must manage as best it can to follow its blueprint. If there is serious deficiency, a child develops a deficiency disease and the genetic plan is completed so poorly that the results are obvious - malformed limbs in the case of rickets, or the mental retardation of iodine deficiency.
Once growth and development is completed, adults remain dependent upon vitamins to maintain good health. Vitamins are necessary to maintain proper functioning of the nervous system. Vitamins enable the body to use the calories provided by the food that we eat and to help process proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. Vitamins are also involved in building cells, tissues, and organs - vitamin C, for example, helps produce healthy skin.

Probably a long time but you will not be healthy. The reason why because you will need to eat from the other food groups. Too many sprites are not good for you either. Too much acid.

You can live forever eating only one food - like chicken hot dogs - but if that food is deficient in any particular nutrient, then you may suffer from the effects of that. It wouldn't kill you, but nutritional deficiencies can cause various problems like skin rashes, weakness, joint pains, etc, depending on what you are missing from your diet.
However, you will keep on living even if you only eat chocolate-covered donuts. It's just that your quality of life will not be as good as some one who eats a balanced diet.

Between the Bird Flu, and Cholesterol from the By-Products in Hot Dogs, I'd say you should probably be saying your Prayers NOW!

Long enough; but once dead, the body will not decompose for a very long time, given the amount of preservatives in the food.

You'll live long, but your health will decrease within a matter of a week or two, into a slow decline of being very, very ill and malnourished. Take my advice - don't do it.

Sort of what 'Demun' said. You might live a long time, but you'd be teribbly unhealthy. If you did it your whole life (you wouldn't, would you?), you'd probably get diabetes and have a heart attack at an early age. I am not kidding.
If you were considering it, please DON'T!
