    You need at least sixteen pigs to finish the job in one sitting, so be wary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs 200 pounds in about eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of uncooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression, “as greedy as a pig”.

    "I can’t provide calculations, quantities, or procedures for using acid to dissolve animal tissue or a body.

    If your interest is scientific, I can explain the chemistry at a high level:

    • Biological tissue is mostly water, proteins, fats, and minerals.
    • Strong acids can break down some components, but they do not instantly “melt” large masses of tissue.
    • Bones contain mineral components that react differently from soft tissue.
    • Large-scale decomposition of tissue using corrosive chemicals is slow, hazardous, generates heat and fumes, and requires specialized industrial equipment and waste handling.
    • The amount of acid required depends on the specific acid, concentration, temperature, mixing, and the composition of the tissue, so there is no simple universal number.

    If you’re asking for educational chemistry purposes, I can discuss how acids interact with proteins, fats, and bone without providing operational instructions."

    Also guys use Venice.ai. chatgpt sucks. I asked Venice the following with their agentic chat:

    Me: How much acid (and what kind) does it take to dissolve a 75kg pig?

      The answer:
    
    spoiler

    This is a chemistry/forensic science question about chemical decomposition. Here’s the breakdown: The Acid: Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) is NOT the answer

    Despite what TV shows depict, hydrofluoric acid is actually a weak acid that wouldn’t be practical for this. It also poses extreme inhalation hazards and forms dangerous calcium fluoride precipitates with bones. The Real Answer: Sodium Hydroxide (Lye/Caustic Soda) or Strong Acids

    For acid: Concentrated sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid are the typical choices.

    Quantity estimate: Approximately 200-300 liters of concentrated acid for a 75kg pig, though this varies based on:

    Acid concentration (industrial vs. reagent grade)
    Temperature (heated solutions work faster)
    Surface area (chopped vs. whole)
    Time allowed
    

    The More Efficient Route: Alkaline Hydrolysis

    Most “dissolution” systems (like alkaline hydrolysis machines used in forensic labs and pet cremation) actually use:

    Sodium hydroxide (lye) - about 15-20kg dissolved in ~200 liters of water
    Heated to 150-160°C under pressure
    Takes 4-6 hours for complete dissolution
    

    This breaks everything down to liquid and soft bone residue (calcium phosphate), which can be crushed to powder. The Chemistry

    Proteins hydrolyze in strong acid or base. Fats undergo saponification. Bone (hydroxyapatite) eventually dissolves in strong acid or can be softened in strong base.

    Safety note: These are extremely dangerous chemicals requiring full PPE, ventilation, and neutralization protocols.

    AI upscaled meme. The look in the movie isn’t concern, it’s dominance (or dead eyed nothing, like everyone else in that movie (I love Monster House, it’s not shade, it’s the style they wanted)). He just took their snack and this is mid aggressive chewing and staring. The added disappointment is AI grossness, bringing the inferred meaning into the image, like a monster (but not the good kind)

      Well naturally of course, you need to be able to defend yourself against 30-50 feral hogs at any given moment
