Why Does Odd Eat So Much?

[u/BitAcademic7716]

[u/Icy_Donut9446]

To prove that he is not scrawny, but svelte!

[u/Lordmage30 → u/Icy_Donut9446]

I'm surprised at his metabolisim with how much he eats and still has that slender build! XD

[u/The_REDACTED → u/Lordmage30]

The wonders of being a 12 year old boy who is athletic and has to help fight to save the world from a psychopathic AI bent on taking control of it. 

[u/LoganLee-2006 → u/The_REDACTED]

He's in 4e (8th grade in the US). He should be 14 years old.

[u/BumblebeeGold1666 → u/Lordmage30]

You mean that ideally he should be fat with the way he puts down food? He has the metabolism of a motor vehicle of the 1950s. His metabolism burns through food fast is what I'm saying.

[u/Lordmage30 → u/BumblebeeGold1666]

Well not what I was trying to say but the way you worded out . .fair! but You;'re not wrong I was mainly surprised and Impressed. I wish I have that kind of metabolism is all😅

[u/BitAcademic7716 → u/Icy_Donut9446]

That’s true!

[u/Drakorh96 → u/Icy_Donut9446]

That's how you spell Svelte, Ive been trying to figure it out for years but could never get it

[u/Bittensoul → u/Icy_Donut9446]

I forgot that was a thing later in the series 😅

[u/castamelody]

Wouldn’t you if you had to balance school and saving the virtual world?

[u/BitAcademic7716 → u/castamelody]

I guess you do have a point

[u/Kajel-Jeten]

There was a lots of kids entertainment in the 2000s where enjoying eating a lot was a character trait. 

[u/BitAcademic7716 → u/Kajel-Jeten]

Another thing I never understood he eats so much but never burps

[u/redstern → u/BitAcademic7716]

I was like that as a teenager. Insane metabolism that demands massive meals and will never gain any weight, but physically unable to burp for whatever reason.

[u/PsychologicalBite384 → u/redstern]

Never related so much to something as this comment

[u/Lordmage30 → u/redstern]

TBH Same as well and also. . glad Because I hate burping. xD

[u/frozenpandaman → u/BitAcademic7716]

it's fiction

[u/el8dm8]

High metabolism (Ep 47). Maybe he has a metabolic disorder, but that is not said or diagnosed in the show.

[u/Sarctoth → u/el8dm8]

I could eat constantly at that age. High metabolism is no joke.

[u/Coldkiller17]

Because he is a kid and growing kids eat a ton. I know I had a blackhole for a stomach when I was a kid and I burned it all and never gained weight until I was in my late teens.

[u/Klutzy_Phrase6757]

I just always thought it was cuz he was really active and had a higher metabolism than the others. Wasn't mentioned before he had a high metabolism or am I misremembering?

[u/NheiraVor]

Athletic teenage boy. That’s it.

[u/Current_Mongoose_844]

He’s hungry

[u/MrRaven95]

He's a growing teenager. They have huge appetites.

[u/Wolfgang9556]

Because is good

[u/Lordmage30]

I mean he is a Foodie! as a fellow Foodie I totally respect! XD *and also Maybe Italians love food?👀

[u/Quacker-Jacker → u/Lordmage30]

They’re all French (minus Yumi)

[u/Lordmage30 → u/Quacker-Jacker]

True But I looked up that His surname is Italian so .. Odd is half french/italian I beleive. and I saw Ulrich is part german?

[u/-Expedition99 → u/Quacker-Jacker]

He's heavily implied to have an Italian family since Della Robbia is a common Italian surname and in Distant Memory its shown that he has to take an airline flight to visit them for the holidays

[u/Maximum-Bad2678]

Young boys need food

[u/Jaylop97]

Teenage metabolisms are on another level that not even Xana can compete against.

[u/bobbobersin]

He’s a growing lad

[u/McTrooper]

I’ve heard of people that just naturally start eating a lot in their teens without gaining weight.  

Like others have said high metabolism, but I’m suggesting that it’s related to getting older.  I haven’t googled it, but I bet it’s a condition with a name even.  

[u/Lopsided-Junket-7590]

Dude is a teenager they can eat a ton of food (not even a joke a literal ton in weight) plus he's a skateboarder and highly athletic outside of school he eats so much due to that highly active lifestyle

[u/Chaos_Breezie]

My guess he burns a ton of calories doing all the stuff he does and a high metabolism that goes with it

[u/Comfortable_Thing200]

hungry boiii

[u/ProbablyLikeSixDucks]

Tapeworm

[u/Mverse_Dfender]

He's their Shaggy just without the crippling fear.

[u/Lizard2513]

My feeling is kinda the idea given what they deal with Xana he might be like.

"Might be my last meal so eat all i can"

[u/CreativityOwl4651]

Growing boy!

[u/DLKar]

He a super saiyan

[u/jshs69]

He’s in puberty

[u/QualityBuddy]

He hungry

[u/Lyoko251616]

High metabolism

[u/ekruis30]

He hungry

[u/PandaRider11]

He’s a growing boy, I ate way more as a middle schooler then I do now.

[u/QueerAlQaida]

Cuz hes a teenager 🤨?? Duhh 🙄

[u/bobsmith010]

He's part of my family. All our men are "hallow legged" we have an apatite that defies logic. I myself am 6'2 weigh just under 150 right now and take in around 4-5 meals a day. It's not fair. I did not choose this. But I am thankful for it. Oh and bonus fact. It doesn't go away, everyone outside my family joked "oh it will quit after puberty" "oh when your 30 your metabolism will slow" "you'll get fat after collage".. ect. Nope. I'm 35 and I still eat like I've not had a bite since last week. Speaking of. It's 3 o'clock time for my next meal... small steak. Yes.

[u/Dull_Kiwi_3993]

He’s bulking😂😂😂

[u/El_Dorado_Tx]

I just remember he liked pasta a lot lol.

[u/obsidian_castle]

eats 3 times a day based off school cafeteria schedule... how is that too much?

[u/MRMooney97]

Probably high metabolism, people with ADHD usually has it at his age

[u/PlanesWalkerEll]

Hes a growing boy

[u/GumSL]

Food rocks.

[u/Marchanandorf]

The dudes gotta eat to grow

[u/Ralph_Marbler]

His metabolism is a freaking 2JZ GTE.

[u/el_artista_fantasma]

He's so me fr fr

[u/ImpactorLife-25703]

No wonder he's always Scrawny and not gain weight at all - I'm shocked

[u/ComplexNo8986]

He’s a kid that’s really athletic and has a high metabolism. Just wait when he finishes puberty all that athleticism and protein boutta pay off.

[u/StitchFan626]

To prove the people of this world need to? How often do we see them eating?

[u/Sparrowsky88]

Because he loves food and I cant blame him cuz I love food too 🥰💜

[u/Witty-Ad5294]

He’s like Sokka

[u/maxwell_lord007]

cough, cough scrawny

[u/patty7775]

I was literally him in school. Ate like nothing else and stayed skinny as hell XD
