Yeah, people DO eat gold.

What's more, you can also find some desserts that include diamonds.

DFTerm 3 v0.1 can be found in 3rd party utilities currently actually. And Meph may add it into Masterwork, which is very popular, but no it's not true multiplayer, but the very nature of DF doesn't really permit true multiplayer.

its kinda silly but not amazingly stupid. It's just carbon, and diamonds aren't actually worth much.

Somehow I doubt they eat the diamonds... it's not like you can chew on them; swallowing them will be unpleasant, and so will expelling them eventually if they aren't digested in the strong acid of the stomach. If someone served me a desert with gold leaf and diamond, I'd eat the gold leaf but keep the diamond in my pocket :P

I'm pretty sure you can't digest diamond. And if someone served you a desert with gold leaf and diamond, you'd be too rich to care about them already.

Well, gold leaf is relatively cheap compared to diamond. You only need a single gram of it to produce a square meter of it. xD
If you scroll down to the very bottom, there are two $50 desserts that have gold in them. $50 is a lot more stomachable a price than the extravagant $15000 deserts up above.

And I just searched and found that our body doesn't provide the pressure nor temperature to melt diamonds x3

Melting isn't what we're going for, though.

You would need some pretty powerful muscles for that.

So today, my friends and I were talking about overrated youtubers, and I said that I didn't like Pewdiepie because he makes rape jokes all the time, so one of my friends tried to convince me that if comedians stopped making rape jokes, the economy would collapse somehow.

Uh. I think we need a hall of fame, just because of this. Are you sure he wasn't pulling your leg?

Untrue. If you were to somehow harness all the Calories in the human body it is more then enough to melt a diamond.

What does what it turns in to have to do with whether you can melt it or not?

I mean, a sword is just an arrangement of iron atoms. You melt a sword down, you get a puddle of iron, not "liquid sword". Doesn't make the sword any less meltable.

Same for diamond.

(Though I don't know if diamond is actually meltable or not? Still, your logic is... interesting.)

He wasn't talking in a sarcastic tone of voice, and I asked him if he was joking, and he said no.

Diamonds burn at temperatures of I-can't-be-bothered-to-look-it-up but under enough pressure and heat they have been liquified. Also, artificial diamonds can be created by compressing carbon sufficiently.
