I was watching this video in which the guy talks about the deadly poisons in some of the produce that we commonly eat. In it he mentions how the seeds of a few common fruits contain chemicals which the body turns into cyanide and how "easy" it is to off yourself with apple seeds (pic related)
So naturally, I went to work autistically researching that, and it turns out that it's not as simple as that. First of all, different varieties of apples contain different amounts of the cyanide-producing chemical, so which apple variety is in pic related? And to add insult to injury, the same source he took the "cores of 18 apples" number from (Britannica) says that it may take from 150 to several thousands seeds to cause cyanide poisoning —let alone yeet yourself (an apple contains 5-8 seeds according to them btw)
So purely out of curiosity: is Britannica full of shit and want to cover their assess in case someone tries to kill themselves using their information, or are the seeds of 18 apples enough to theoretically end it?
If not, then how many apple seeds do you really need to ingest to an hero?
Also, I also looked into other fruits that have these chemicals in them and found out that it's not so simple for them either. Because the amount of poison in the varieties of all the fruits vary widely with each other, but also the amounts in the same fruit variety between different studies
And since I'm autistic, I think it'd be a fun intellectual exercise to figure out:
1 the common fruit varieties from which you could get the most cyanide per weight of fruit (no named varieties which a shitty 3rd-world country wouldn't have and describe the ones it would, e.g.: don't say "Granny Smith", say "firm, green, sour, small-to-medium apple"
2 from which of these you could practiclly get enough cyanide to reliably kys every time you ingest their seeds/pit calculated with a more than generous margin of error to eliminate any risk of surviving to "live" the rest of your life as a potato.
Household Poisons
Also, I wonder what other poisons we unknowingly have in our homes and come in contact with in our everyday lives (maybe outside our homes at work or some other place we would normally go to). I'm especially curious about the ones that may accidentally kill you, like solanine in potatoes, though I'm also interested in the ones which you may theoretically intentionally use to covertly kill yourself without anyone knowing you committed faggotry.
See pic related.
I hate being a phone fag so goddamn much. I couldn't see which pic I was posting and I couldn't delete it for whatever reason the same minute I posted it (thanks, Hiro).
I fucking miss Sam so much

Some guy in england tried to kill himself by swallowing 17 cherry pits. He got into intensive care and didn't have permanent damage. I think you'd need a distiller to get results
You know what, you're smart enough. Research solanine on your own.
Huh. I heard of the ol' mushed cherry pits. I dunno how much a cherry pit weighs, but according to my very shitty research, it would take IIRC 30-40 grams of cherry pits to kill a 60 Kg man. Can't remember which variety that was, probably dark red.
Also, fuck me is this much more goddamned obtuse than it should be.
bump
God bless, Any Forumsro
Just buy a bag of cherries and distil the ground pits of about 100 or so. That should be safe enough if you want to end it
there's other things easy to find and more efficient for that
you also have a lots of funny plants/mushrooms who can help you, depending where you live
well first off yeah, you cant so yourself in with even 200 appleseeds and then there are ABC channels in the gut epithelia that reject cyanide and youll essentially shit it out, you either IV it or it wont do shit, IV appleseed juice must be bussin do
>OMG LE HECKIN SCIENE YOUTUBER IS SO COOL!!!!! I FREAKING LOVE SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!!
Please test this experiment yourself, faggot
>chlorine bleach + toothpaste = don't do it
why
now i have to do it to find out
tell us what happens if you survive
Aight. Much appreciated.
Thanks. But how do I even starting making use of this chart considering that I don't want to it to look like a sewerslide?
Living in a Middle-Eastern shithole btw. Can get a lot of herbal shite easily, so if you know anything herbal which can be bought and used without raising any alarms and which which fulfills the condition in my first reply, hit me with it.
Sounds like you're full of shit tbh.
