It’s just an approximate guess, but yet again…

The way I struggled, toiled away, doing math
꒷︶꒷꒥꒷︶꒷꒥꒷︶꒷

TYPO: humans eat about 5% ish of their body weight

This is what I personally think an inkling's diet would look like. Loosely based off of how real squids eat.

I really like this style of post i've been doing I feel like a miniturewith my little food theories くコ:彡

Anything not derived from a mammal, really (since they don’t exist). Their society is quite similar to ours in most ways

#

I looked on google and it said that some birds produce a type of milk called crop milk, so maybe they can drink milk

#

They would probably have to put sugar in it cus google says it tastes very bad

#

still gnashing my teeth over this piece of dialogue though, NARWHALS ARE MAMMALS

#

pretty sure its just a continuity error tho because RotM pretty much comfirms theyre all dead

#

It’s NOA dialogue and they’re not the original scriptwriters

dark moat
#

there's a reason that "NoA moment" is something of a meme in the splatoon lore community

https://kotaku.com/do-squid-kids-eat-squid-splatoon-s-producer-explains-1826865317 there's an interview with nogami that covers this topic

Kotaku

Splatoon 2 is a game about squid-kids waging war with neon ink. It’s not an easy one to explain to grandma. And it takes place in a freaky world that raises a lot of questions—What did squid kids evolve from? How do they get so much ink in those little ink guns? Where are these kids’ parents?

Basically anything

#

Makomart and like, other places have food

hasty wren
#

#

why cant people comprehend any other milk

#

almond milk, other.. milk

#

idk the other milks lol

I'm sure engisonic knows well they don't use mammal milk. The question is what exactly are they using, as in, what kind of substitute is most popular in their world
I'd guess soy is the most popular based on how many soy based products get referenced already

hasty wren
#

point one: yes, i was asking specifics
point two: i'm not sure why i didn't realize soy cheese was a thing

Calamari 💀💀

mystic wolf
#

even if they do eat calamari it’s basically no issue at all considering squids and octos are different species via evolution and stuff

wispy drift
#

Yeah they eat unevolved squids and octos

#

Also you can see in the concession stand what food they eat

#

Crab, egg, noodles, shrimp, lemon

# manic roost What does smallfry eat?

What about Judd
It’s unlikely cat food exists

#

judd is famous

#

and also he had a ton of food in his tank next to him

#

so like im sure they have a point of reference for what they like to eat

Also plenty of creatures that cats eat still exist, on top of the whole, immortality thing

if we were in the splatoon 3 world, question is, how likely would I be able to buy makomart and be the manager/CEO?
