Would the Moopsy eat jello?

[Charles Phipps]

Of course, if it's collagen, then they probably drink your cartilage, and a lot of other connective tissue. So it could be something more specific to bones.

What is it with ST and lifeforms whose eating habits violate laws of physics, anyway?

I shall let the answer come from the expert.

"Moopsy."

There.

 

[Nerys Myk]

If you can safely find out what the Moopsies find nutritious in bones from all those species, you'll be able to synthesize a "Jello" that will satisfy them.

With marshmallows?

 

[JoseNoodles]

Mmmm...Calcium flavored Jell-O...ahhhh

Could you replicate flesh with bones, a non-living human meat sack for Moopsy to eat? I recall an Enterprise episode where some aliens faked Mayweather's death with a replicated body.

 

[Oddish]

^ Almost certainly. It would have no living cells in it, but the Moopsy might not notice.

Now I've thought about it's capabilities, I'm worried what Barclay would do with a replicator
