In the movies, zombies are always hungry, no matter how many supporting actors they consume. The most likely explanation is that zombies don't have a properly functioning ventromedial hypothalamus: the region of the brain that lets you know whether you've eaten enough. The result is hyperphagia. Zombies will eat and eat and eat, but never feel satiated.

That raises a slightly awkward question: If zombies are constantly eating, then how come they never poop?

That's not so much what it's "like" as... you know, what it is.

Anyway, this is a fantastic blend of hard science and even harder nerdery.
Anime is kind of like fish in that it is better the less "fishy" it is.
