    our local radio stations said the homeless diet means you eat off of $1.50 a day.... like cheap eggs, cheap bread, etc. they said nothing about eating paper

    But the paper is where you get all of the fiber!

    Fiber is great, but you can't JUST eat fiber. Where would you get your protein from?

    You can probably get fats just from smelling the McDonald's wrapper, though, I have to admit.

    You can get protein AND supplement your income in any back alley in any city.

    Not everyone is lucky enough to be born with common sense, takes some longer to achieve it.

    All this time I've been wasting real food and money on homeless people. I'll just toss them some newspapers and wrappers next time. Thanks for the tip!

    Most fast food joints have a grease pit outside that they empty the old fry grease into. If you can find this then you can pick out pieces of fries or even just add some grease to the paper to make it taste better. You can also use this grease for fuel to stay warm at night. Find one of these places for sure.

    Haha! Funny... because prostitution, right?

    Yeah, prostitution is illegal in most states, though.

    Also, carbs are needful for energy and the OP is a man, so he might not want to do the back alley thing.

    Also, I would like to add that this diet is not sustainable long-term...

    Print media is dying out and soon you won't have any newspaper to eat.

    Woah . . calm down. This isn't meant to be funny and you only eat trash.

    We don't eat actual homeless people.

    'Twould solve Concrete's protein issue, though. Ethically, can you hunt your own meat, or is it preferable to scavenge?

    The idea is to get our bodies back to a more 'Homeless state' like our Ancestors who were also homeless.

    Modern things like 'soap', 'deodorant', and 'shampoo' are destroying our bodies and making us fat.

    Hygeine plays a HUGE role in the Homeless Diet
