No , I love food ... Love the color and texture ...thats half the fun .anyway pills are manmade and sorry you can't get a good steak, nice salad, and fresh peach pie in a pill ..

You know what? I've tried this. (Almost). For Lent last year, every Friday I didn't eat any food...I just drank: energy drinks, meal replacements, soup, juice, etc. The point was to get all my calories without the physical enjoyment of food.
You know what? IT DOESN'T WORK! I was still miserable. It really made me recognize the psychological effects of eating food. (good spiritual exercise too!)
So I don't think taking a pill would work...your body would still be 'hungry'. A lot of hunger is in the mind.

No. I like to eat. It's fun.
Some people eat to fuel their body. But for some people it's more than that: comfort, entertainment, etc. In my world meals have always been an event.
This is probably why I'm feeling a little pudgy. If the pill could cure my messed up psychological need for eating, then yes, I'd go for it.

absolutely eating food seems to be such an animal activity and buying preparing and eating food takes up too much time i think you have a good idea about combining everything into a pill i am so much into good health i already have to take nutrition supplements anyway as most people should to maintain optimum nutrition the problem is the amount of carbohydrate and protein we need daily that would be difficult to fit into one pill it seems you would still let us drink liquid so i would not have to give up tea time

No. No way. Food is an art form, a pill is just a collection of nutrients. That poor pill's out of it's league.

No.If I'm eating something really good i want to enjoy it for as long as i can ,if that means until I'm full then be it.But i wouldn't want to take a pill for the sake of being full ,it's not as satisfying ,nor enjoyable.

Since I'm always on the go, sure. But when it comes to the holidays, no pill can beat mum's hot pumpkin pies.

I wouldn't, because that's a cheap substitute and I like the taste of most food.

Maybe occasionally, if I really didnt have time to eat...but I enjoy different tastes and combinations of foods!
