Or you're starved for it. Have you ever consumed two thousand calories' worth of blood? It would be . . .

Around half a person's worth, I suspect. A liter would be about 900 calories, and if you'd consume three . . . I suppose it depends upon the person, but unless they were particularly large, draining that much would be almost certainly fatal. A blood bag is only a pint-- if you're living off only a few, no wonder you're always hungry.

It'd be as if I ate only one meal a day. I could survive, but I imagine I wouldn't think of anything save a steak.

[A beat, and then:]

A theory, nothing more. But one you may wish to consider in the future.
