Interesting method to prove a hypothesis. However, many if not most shat once a day after a cup of coffee in the morning (myself most definately in that category). What would make the experiment more accurate would be to eat corn at different times of the day and note in the AM Loo full-o-Poo if corn is present. For instance, if I eat corn for lunch, I won't propel any toilet torpedos until at least 18 hours after loading the tube. However, if I eat a cob of corn at 10 just before I go to bed and project a corn casserole canoe into the canal of caca I've proven something. Variations on the timing will produce interesting results I'm sure. My corn is almost knee high, I may even (perish the thought) buy some before mine is ready in order to meet the challenge (cable) laid before me.

Now that's what a men's room is supposed to smell like!

I usually don't eat corn, I just throw it right in the toilet and save time and trouble.

_______

The proper order is kiss me, then go smell the other dog or cat's butt. I cannot stress this enough.

I totally agree with you bilgepump i do have to say if i eat corn i can assure everyone it comes back out in less than 10 hours.

I no longer eat corn in large quantities, although I once ate 22 ears at one sitting while high on pot, so I can not enter this test. I must limit my carbs thanks to diabetes. The particular time I over consumed this delectable grain it patently awaited its correct time for exiting my GI tract. Unless I eat contaminated food I produce waste on a regular basis at about 7:00 AM irregardless to what I have consumed.

_______

Producing waste at 7 AM is great, unless you usually sleep till 8.

Wow, Chief, 22 ears while high on pot? Last time I was high on pot I just ate a bunch of doughnuts, then threw them up afterwords.

I can tell you if I eat corn for dinner at say around 10:00PM (I eat late), it will be in the potty the next moring no later than 8:00AM.

My System works very similar to the Chiefs, go at the same time every day, and if I'm lucky, again or several times thereafter. Corn is one of those "special" foods that blasts right through most folks, and has some magical ability to repair itself on the way through. I always give my head a shake after viewing a good ol' Corn dump, and promise myself that next time I consume it, I will try to chew better as it always appears to be in exactly the condition it was in while still lookind delectable soaked in butter and pepper on the cob.
Other foods would not complete the maze of intestines with such authority.

It's O.K., We just have to smell it; He's got to sit in it!

I know what you all mean about corn, I had a few ears on Memorial Day at about 7:00 PM, then had a nice corn shit the next morning at about 7:30.

That stuff must go through everybody like lightning.

Corn is a good "signpost" but not the only one. We've had a couple of posts about what foods reappear in our poop. For those to whom corn is too stimulating, it would give a falsely quick transit time. I know--when I was in my 20s I had a period of time when I couldn't eat corn because I would blow it out within the hour--once on the side of the road well before dark. That ailment, fortunately, passed (!), and I can now eat corn without a problem.

For those who would get a falsely fast reading, use one of the other "tags": nuts, tomatoes with skins, spinach, kidney beans, etc. Then take your readings. My transit time varies between 12 and 24 hours, and sometimes a given "tag" doesn't all come out in one b.m., but parts of it exit over two or three movements. I'm not sure that "transit time" is a single unchangeable quantity. Still, an interesting topic of research.

It would be interesting to know my transit time on the motillium. I had a real transit study done in 2004. 16 days lator I still had markers in my colon on the left side. I couldn't take any laxatives or enemas during that time. I had to get x-rayed every day except sat sun and holiday. Now With miralax 2X a day and motillium 2 4X a day, I don't even see my antidepressant the next day. I take Pristiq and the medication leaves the pill but the pill stayse intact. Pretty cool, huh? I happened to poop three pills in the one push of poop one evening last week. You really only need to eat on serving corn, chief. Not 22 cobs. To really be effective count how many kernals you eat. THEN count how many you poo in how many and the time you pood.Try a new veggie a week. I think it might be different for different veggies. For instance, I ate some awesome mustard greens at 4p. I had an awesome brown poop (for me) at 9p. Now I will wait for my first sign of green poop and document the time I had the first and last green poop. That green veggie will tell me how long it took me to get rid of all the turnips I ate. I mean the mustard greens. I will eat corn after I'm finished pooping mustard greens. Spinach would be an excellent indicator for me.

I'm a corn lover. My family eats corn at least 4 times a week. However, I have never once seen corn in my shit. Honestly, not one single time.

I won`t touch corn, it`s the food of the devil - goes in one end then comes out the other in exactly the same state as it went in.

Night before last I consumed a huge tomato salad with my evening meal; grape tomatoes cut in halves with lots of chopped raw garlic, basil and doused heavily with good olive oil. Yesterday morning I had a sort of loose bowel movement that consisted mostly of tightly rolled tomato skins. It was actually quite colorful.

I ate the first sweetcorn of the year from our greenhouse (we planted 12 seeds just to see if they would grow worth a damn inside)at lunch yesterday around 12:00pm dropped a load at approximately 8:15 pm last night just before going riding and there was a small amount of corn in it. about 11:00am today the rest made a mad dash out thought i was going to shit myself to death on that one i don't know why i eat the stuff i pay for it everytime over and over

Still no sign of the mustard greens. Havent even pooped yet today.

I had a HUNGRY-MAN last night, the boneless fried chicken with mash potatoes, corn and a brownie. I consumed it at 7:30PM, plopped it out today at 2PM, so 18.5 hrs for me.

A couple weeks ago my wife made some rhubarb crisp--absolutely delicious. After a generous portion that evening, I had near diarrhea with some telltale stringy stuff the next morning, very urgent b.m.

A couple days ago she made a rhubarb pie, very like the other dish only in a pie shell. It, too, is delicious; had some yesterday morning for breakfast and awaited results. Sure enough, by late morning I was having urgent signs of having to poop. I was giving a final exam and obviously couldn't leave. I held it for at least 40 minutes. Finally the end of the exam came, and I went to the boys' restroom. (Teachers and students use the same restrooms at my small school.) To my surprise, the movement was excellent--slow and satisfying: three fairly firm pieces at least 6" each, nice and round, about a 3 or 4 on the Bristol scale. I felt really good after that one. So the rhubarb had quite a different effect than two weeks ago.

Welcome, Sphincter of the smokey persuasion. How did you know that it was the hungry man that you were pushing out? We need details.

All the same, congrats on the first post.

To affect the quality of the poo, that is the art of life. ~Thoreau, sort of.

Deja Poo - Around noon the next day, I started to get very gassy from the HUNGRY-MAN and I knew that I was very close to my daily visit to the office crapper. Those quick meals are so greasy, it's inevitable not to have a loosey goosey the next day. Around 1:55PM, I got the memo from my ass that said, "You better get to the bathroom, NOW!" So I quickly made my way and left a stink trail along the way :) As I raced to the bathroom, I kinda knew I would make it but there is always that questionable doubt. Luckily, I was blessed with less than a few seconds to spare, dropped my drawers and expelled the evil kiddies into the pool. They were sooo happy to splish and splash around with their cousins of gold. It had been at least 3 months since they got together last. Their joy left a shit eating grine on my face.

SP, after 6 days I think the mustard greens just dissolved and went brown; no visible trace. It doesn't always reappear, I suspect.

Delicious collard greens seasoned with bacon and sprinkled with vinegar at about 5PM yesterday. This morning at 8AM a huge black snake in the bowl. Transit time 15 hours. Maybe that is why I'm fat! My body holds on to things until all the nutrients have been squeezed out!

mabe MSG. However, I was without motillium for a couple of days. I'm just starting to poop last weeks groceries. I am still piled high in poop by 3 lbs. Give me a couple more days and I might see the greens. MY transit time is documented at >16 days.

Last night we had a great supper of steak, baked potato, and BEETS. This morning, 12 hours after that meal, my poop was fairly dark brown (also had Oreo cookies at some time yesterday) with a sort of grayish tinge; but after it had sat in the bowl a couple of minutes (time to wipe and then wash hands thoroughly so no nasty little germies would be on the flush handle), it exuded a faint but definite purplish-red tinge into the water. Occasionally I get actual red poop from beets, but more often I get this red tint in the water; transit time in this instance 12 hours.

I'm still waiting. I might have to eat corn tol push out the greens.
_______

I think that I might be working on the mustard green area of poop. At about 6p last evening there was that hint of garlic and the color of the poo wipe has a mustard colored hue. I had a chance to eat corn yesterday but I already had 3 starches on my plate. Like I said, I think, but I'm not sure because I haven't seen any plant cellulose yet.

No Chief, that is not why you are fat. Its the alcohol and the amount of food you are eating. If you are not following a diabetic diet then its also what you are choosing to eat. Alcohol alone will make you fat, Chief. If you were really on a diabetic diet, we wouldn't be able to see your letters sideways as you would be so skinny.

No sp.......I greatly exaggerate my intake of alcohol for the sake of humor and I monitor my diet with help from my daughter who is not only an RN but is also certified as a counselor for diabetics. My blood sugar is controlled mostly through my eating habits with a little help from prescription drugs.

I have been under the care of an endocrinologist at the Veteran's Administration for the last 35 years because of problems related to my thyroid and pituitary glands. If I gave up drinking entirely my condition might improve somewhat but I am not willing to forgo every little pleasure in life.

My food intake for today, which is about normal for most days, consisted of a breakfast of 3/4 cup of Cheerios with a little milk and a small slice of cantaloupe washed down by black decaf coffee. For lunch I shall have a lean roast beef sandwich on double fiber bread along with a few grape tomatoes. Dinner will be a single pork chop (trimmed of all visible fat) baked in a garlic tomato sauce, along with collard greens, steamed squash and two red potatoes about the size of golf balls. I will possibly consume 1 and 1/2 to 3 ounces of bourbon this evening. As I stated above I am unwilling to deny myself this small pleasure.

Bran Lover....Nothing simpler than the garlic tomato sauce I use with boneless pork chops. I usually cook three 4 ounce chops at a time in a small convection oven. I brown the chops in an iron skillet with a little cooking spray then place them in a small roast pan on a bed of rough chopped onions (1 Large). I saute SEVERAL cloves of rough chopped garlic in a little olive oil then dump in an 11 ounce can of tomato sauce and two chopped jalapeno chilies, chop the chilies whole for spicy, or remove the seeds and pith for mild. Sprinkle a little sea salt, white or black pepper, and thyme on the chops in the pan then cover with the sauce. Place a lid on the pan and fan-bake for about 90 minutes at 350. I like this with turnip greens, brown rice and steamed yellow squash.

sittingpretty.....Out of whack glandular systems are not completely understood but the endocronologists of the world are working on it. My son worked in a hospital in Tempe Arizona several years ago and remarked to one of the doctors that all the local Pima Indians were obese. The doctor pointed out that the Pima's had lived on the brink of starvation for centuries and had super efficient digestive systems. If that is the case for me that means that when the food supply runs out I will hang around longer that all the skinny people with inefficient systems, maybe until the supply is reastablished.

No doubt you will out live me. i will be one of the first to go in a drought. I get malnourished and dehydrate fast. i would only live maybe 3 to 4 months tops without food. i will be symptomatic at 1 1/2 months of starvation. It has already happened to me thats why i know.

Besides the visual tracers, I have found that "death olives" work as well. Theses Habanero stuffed jewels well defiantly let you know they have arrived.

I seem to have a problem with sauteed mushrooms going right through me, but I love them so I keep going back for more punishment. A few days ago my wife made a pan of sauteed garlic, mushrooms, and spinach. Now I am sure many of you are going to think I am nuts, and that it is a medical impossibility, but I swear this is true. Within 30 minutes of eating, I not only had green poo, but I shat out a completely undigested spinach leaf that looked as though it hadn't even been chewed.

Hello, Jack, I know that is perfectly possible and have done similar things myself. I also had a colleague in a real estate office 25 years ago who took a trip to Mexico and returned with Montezuma's Revenge. We were eating lunch one day, and she was having a small lettuce salad. "I hope I get over this soon," she said, "because when I eat, I see it again in a few minutes." Sure enough, five or ten minutes later she excused herself, saying, "Here it comes--gotta go." When she got back, she said, "It came out pretty much like it went in." It took her a couple of weeks to return to normal.

I have a Poop Report: since my report has a transit time factor/issue for history's sake...i think I can report on this page that AAGH!!! I pooped a little bit in my boy draws in my sleep last night!!! I just noticed them crumpled up in a corner of the bathroom. No, I didn't rinse them out first. It is dried on the boxers by now. I put them in a hot wash with bleach and the towels. Then I will rinse the batch twice. That aught to take care of it. Wait. Three rinses. Got to put the Downy in a rinse. ...and their flesh like dung. Zeph. 1:17

Chief. Way up there in this thread, when you explained your endocrine problem. Are you really of Native American descent? Did you starve at some time in your life for an extended period of time? Is it genetic?
