  • Youre right. Because their bottom line is improved in the short term so that they can say "Look at how much revenue we made last year!"

    "And now look at how many people employed to gain that revenue!"

    "No, don't look over the whole year! Just look at right now!"

  • Nature has a way of providing an observable metric.

    Let me correct my statement. Given no alternatives, cockroaches will eat anything without a caloric deficit. Hence my statement about wallpaper paste. A true infestation of cockraoches will eat anything that will sustain the intrusion. If there is no available "food" around, cockroaches will crawl over cucumbers to eat the paste holding the wallpaper to the wall.

    So long as there is no additional sugar in the brine (hence calories), the roaches will not eat the pickles.

    Edit: obligatory not an entomologist.

  • It would take more energy to digest the pickle than the pickle would provide.

    One example that I like to use is this: would a cockroach eat it? Roaches eat everything from food crumbs to wallpaper paste. Anything with calories. Do you know something that roaches WON'T eat? Cucumbers.

    So long as the pickles don't have sugar in the brine, I would say you would likely starve to death.
