Fun fact - if you eat the demon-core, at 124 trillion calories, it will provide enough energy for the rest of your life.

Which is the equivalent of ~4,000,000 gallons of gas, or 10,700,000,000 Tesla powerwalls.

Bear in mind, however, that some napkin math suggests that this is gross overkill, 2,250365100 = 82,135,000, suggesting that even a fairly long lived person only needs a mere 2,650 gallons of gas, or ~7,070 Tesla powerwalls, and that the demon-core can easily supply enough lifetime calories for a solid large city of ~1,500,000.

All 30 seconds of it.
You won't die in 30 seconds unless you shoot yourself in the head afterwards (which may be the preferable option).
Well plutonium metal aside from the radioactivity is actually poisonous, like most heavy metals. I wonder which would kill you first?
I mean heavy metals don’t typically kill you very quickly. Do any of them act faster than radiation poisoning? Maybe thallium?
I can count on the fingers of one hand, the number of times I've been to Chernobyl
Eight?
Close enough
I'm so sick of these fad diets. All the kids show up to school with plutonium in their teeth.
