Wall-E is one of my all time favorite movies, cheering me up even when I'm in the worst of moods. But the other night when watching it, between the many moments of manly weeping, I came to a horrible realization - Cupcake-in-a-Cup is People! IT'S PEOPLE! I mean where else would their food be coming from? Now you're saying MatPat that seems a little dark, maybe even far fetched; and, I wish you were right. But unfortunately, I'm here to prove it to you.

Well, there are a few things that were completely left out, so most likely the food comes from plants. 1. You still need to create Oxygen. Of course they could create Oxygen with water, but they would still need to deal with the hydrogen. Also they need to deal with the CO2 create by the humans. So either they just dump it out into space, leaving solid junks of CO2 floating trough space, or they have plants that use the CO2 to create Oxygen. 2. The calories don't just create themselves. A human uses calories just by existing. So with every "cycle" of a human dying, getting turned into food and than getting eaten until the consumer dies you will loose quite a lot of calories. If we say that the humans are mostly inactive and are actually gaining weight we can go with an average intake of 2.500 calories a day per human (The average daily consumption over the whole life). With a lifespan of up to 200 years like said we can go with 150 years. So every human on board would need around 109.500.000 calories trough their whole life. This would mean that to feed one human they would need around 1.368 dead humans (going from 80.000 calories per human). So if we simplify this very much and say the food lastet the first generation of humans until their death and second generation also consists of exactly 600.000 humans than the third generation could only be around 438 humans. So unless there is a human slaughterhouse on the ship that kills a lot of humans before their natural lifespan it is most likely that the dead body's are used as fertilizer to grow plants.

Yeah there's prolly some sort of mechanized process, probably just direct chemical food printing technology.

What doesn't make sense is if you could do this, you could optimize food for human health, or even genetically alter humans to singularly enjoy a healthy diet

I can see them using corpses as the base for a compost, but a canabalistic food stuff would be unsustainable. they'd run out of food in less than 2 years.

[@ghostsharklegs6687]

The conservation of energy means that if your having humans diffusing usable energy as humans do, you have to imput usable energy in the food supply. This is only possible with chemosynthisis, photosynthesis, or some equivalent process. Sure, you could use human waste and dead humans to help grow crops, but some sort of organic processing via a producer, or perhaps an electronic means of reducing chemical agents is nessasary. If you change human flesh enough for it to be a viable foodstuff, it's more rational to classify it as composting.

[@ghostsharklegs6687]

Around ten people would die per day. Since they likely do multiple dumps of trash a day, it's fair to approximate 1 or 2 corpses per dump. Since the cubes are huge, and we only see a portion of their surface, it's very unlikely we'd see the corspe. Also, there's no guarantee there's not a star trek 2 type launch bay for corspes somewhere on the enormous axiom that we only see a small part of. Also, it would be way more efficient to use bacteria or protists to produce chemicals from human waste that could be used as a food stuff. Or a genetically motified form of chicken cells that turn poop into chicken breasts. Or you could splice yeast and wheat to make a bread forming strain of protist. The list of ways crops could exist without plants or animals are pretty big.

[@rrteppo]

my thoughts exactly, I very much doubt that they could have been able to survive on only human meat. which would mean that there is a farm somewhere on board. Even for 5 years worth of food I would prefer putting a farm on the ship than pure food if you are taking half a million people.

[@alexkhammz5105]

+VengfulDarkness true they cnat survive solely on human meat but also why do they have electrical trees around teh axiom "ELECTRICAL" if they have a farm why dont plant real trees

[@StormsandSaugeye]

***** Ok here's some huge problems: 1. They are next to a massive cloud in space. Revealed to be a segment of the Kuiper belt. The kuiper belt is full of elements that can be chemically made into proteins, carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, and chelated minerals. 2. The amount of waste being cast out into space indicates that this is an open system. 3. The population would have a reducing return per lifetime given these starting numbers of people. If they were being recycled into food, then fed to each other, then that would mean that each body would have to be processed into lipids, carbohydrates, and so on. With the wasteful nature of the people, the population would be reduced by an 8th per generation. Given that this is 700 years past 0 year, that means that there would be less than 1000 people on the ship assuming a beginning population of 50,000 per ship (A low estimate) even then, the ship clearly had at least the same population if not more than the starting population. This means that the theory that people are recycled is increasingly unlikely. 4. The ships clearly have a warp system. This means that they have a fusion if not matter, anti-matter reaction systems. Which means that they can produce all the elements needed to include Iron, which is essential to long term diets. 5. The level of fat on each person indicates a caloric intake higher than 1200 calories per day (A more or less minimum for daily activity, though an argument can be made for 800 calories.) since they seem to have that caloric imbalance from an early age, this means that they receive at least twice the daily caloric intake. than they take in. 6. The caloric content of their meals (Based upon pictures of the food product, shakes, liquified versions of standard food) in at least 32 ounce cups, this means they are taking in at the very least 1800-2400 calories per day. 7. The waste seen in the scene where wall-e and eve wind up upon following the plant, suggests a massive infrastucture in which electronics, food, paper products, and so on are manufactured daily, which makes sense as the ship seems to have all the needed materials to manufacture and remain self sufficient. These are a few of the biggest problems. To me, their obesity, the food products they take in, and so on suggest that they have an outside food source. I'm reminded of replicators from Star Trek, which is technically possible, though requires automation to take base elements and turn them into sugars, carbohydrates, proteins, ammino acids, lipids, omega-3 fatty acids, and so on. Given that these can all be made in nature with no synthetic means required, it stands to reason that these can be replicated by machinery taking the base elements of carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and a few other this and that elements (like iron) all of which are readily abundant in the Kuiper belt as ammonia, methane, water (ice) and so on.

[@pyromancer1352]

Perhaps, but they would need a lot of Uranium to support that thing and it's copies for 700 years mate

[@restorasenrisei9991]

No. No they wouldn't. In fact, conservation of energy states that, minus any light escaping the windows, the propulsion systems, and any potential energy in the scrapmetal, the total energy within the ship must stay exactly the same.

[@isaiahswartz991]

Pyromancer 135 no I runs on water and they have that problem is the machine launches sky high For a lot of food

[@discorderizyoutube5977]

why would they need alot of uranium? a uranium 1cm x 1cm x 1cm of size can already power thousands of homes.

[@balls5121]

Well, they can use a duplication system, as it takes place over a 700 years in the future, as well as them originally taking off roughly 100 years in the future.

Theory debunked. Half the population would have to die every day to supply enough food for the people to be that fat. They can't keep that up for 695 years. See my theory ruin comment for details.

[@arttuvarinen3022]

@@imperfect_ten ahem no the humans need about 2500-3000 calories everyday to gain weight and even 5000 to get that fat and the people should fit 100k or more calories which would mean that one in 20 people would have to die and in real life 4 people are born in a second 2 die so there would be so many bodies over they couldnt even eat

[@imperfect_ten]

@@arttuvarinen3022 Sure, but still, think about it. At the time we see them they are super fat. No one even communicates face to face, so how are babies even being made in the first place? How do kids exist in this? What's most plausible is that just like the captain said in the movie, there is a regenerative food buffet and since they have a regenerator device why couldn't they regenerate people?

[@DemBigOlEyes]

@@imperfect_ten Let me debunk you instead. Ever heard of test-tube babies? And second, the people on the Axium doesn't use as many calories as regular people since they are lazy as f (now). Consider this theory: Most passengers start out as healthy, normal people on a casual flight with all their essentials taken care of. However as time goes on and supplies diminish, Otto begins changing their diet and reducing the otherwise healthy food with junk that can still sustain them, but not energise them hence their slow descend to laziness. The less they exercise, the fatter they become since the calories they consume aren't just unhealthy in the first place, it also has no means of being burnt off. Every generation it gets worse, little by little as shown by the captain's portraits. Sure, advanced medical technology kept them alive and free from most illnesses but whatever lifespan they have are spent lounging around. But they die eventually, each dead body begins containing more and more empty calories which Otto sees as a waste of recyclable resources. At this point, real food is pretty much gone, no matter how much Otto skimps or changes their dietary intake, he knew he had to find some way to keep the humans on board alive and away from earth, thus leading to Mat's theory.

[@imperfect_ten]

@@DemBigOlEyes First of all, the robot's name is Auto. Not Otto. Just clarifying. Second, if they have enough space for that many test tubes, why not have farms too? There were TONS of Axioms that took off in the first place, (as seen in the ads for the Axioms near the beginning of the movie) why not devote one to farms? However, there is the issue of there's only one left at the time the movie takes place, but they could have easily taken apart some of the other Axioms for parts for the cloning machine/regenerative food buffet that the captain said about. And if they can generate babies, it's pretty safe to assume that with their tech they can generate food anyway. And, closing question, let me ask you this. How does MatPat's theory say that it will FLAVOR the human meat? Flavoring takes materials.
