Chewing Cable Burns Calories
Could the cable chewing diet be next? There's evidence it really works.
A team of researchers calculated that chewing cable-wire burns up about 50 calories an hour.
The researchers figured that a squirrel who chews cable 20 minutes, 3 times per week will lose weight.
Squirrels chewing cable-wire has long been a mystery until now. Researchers suggest that squirrels who chew them are attempting to slim down. The real problem occurs when the squirrel chews live cable, often shutting down part of a cities power supply and generally losing it's life in the process.
