I've long wished for a pill that could meet all of my dietary needs. Eating is a pain, and I have better things to do.

As someone who can no longer eat sweets or drink alcohol, my answer is ABSOLUTELTY.

I love bakery goods, Italian food, Japanese, Seafood, breads, fruit, ice cream and on and on.

I stick to a healthy low carb diet but only to avoid health issues.

Thats a big fat yes. Food tastes good.

Now if I did not require food and did not have taste buds I would say no.

Exactly. One of my canned responses to the generic "How ya doin'?" is "Well, I'm eatin' regular and I've got a warm place to sleep (or shit, depending on the audience)"

"Would you give up the pleasure of eating if it meant never getting food poisoning, no trouble with bowel movements and/or indigestion, no heart burn, hemorrhoid issues, and every other problem that comes as a result of eating?"

Does that include the results of 'over eating'???

Nope, I hate to stop whatever I'm doing to sit down, eat, and clean up. I never eat breakfast because I would rather have the sleep. I seldom take a lunch at work because I don't want the interruption. I could easily do with out dinner if my body didn't require it.

It would be nice if eating were optional. It would be really nice if there were no waste at the other end.....

I am not a foodie, so to me food is just fuel. Therefore, my answer is no.

Eating is so you shouldn't starve, swimming is so you shouldn't drown, and running is for when something is after you....

Yes

Plus, I like to cook too much. I still wouldn’t eat nearly as often as I’m required to now.

Probably not. If I get busy, I often forget to eat. So nbd. But then I overeat when my body remembers because I’m over hungry. It’s a catch22 and if I didn’t get hungry I just don’t think it would be an issue.
Now...since I already know what a treat some food items are...that might be a bit of a pickle..
