Ok ya’alls, I don’t mean to pee in the punch bowl or anything **but** , Why would a zombie eat \*anything \*? They are dead! They have no metabolism. And while I’m on the subject, if Zombies \* are \* eating brains (and I have my doubts) then what exactly does Zombie poop look like? If it’s as repulsive as I think it might be, then why wouldn’t we be able to bait a trap with that instead of wasting a perfectly good brain.
