So in my Destiny career, I've heard the phrase "pop a synth" plenty of times, but occasionally back then (and very often recently), I've been hearing a lot of random players say "eat a synth".
Now, I don't know exactly what you do with ammo synthesis (plural form of synthesis?), but I don't think you EAT them.
I've been hearing so much (usually from younger sounding players):
"Gonna eat a synth"
"One sec, eating heavy ammo"
"Cover me, gonna eat a heavy synthesis"
But IDK, maybe I'm wrong.

	I think it's a suppository.

	Maybe just overthinking it? My favorite MG is belt fed. "Pop a synth" or "eat a synth" is simple, fast, & easily understood.

	Wait a minute... *sees JoeyWheeler tag* Is that...

	2 Replieswell, technically it is a pack used by your ghost to create ammo. so your ghost eats it, but you don't.

	1 ReplyI heard it works best if you shove it up your gun.

	5 RepliesOnly Ether Seeds, they're actually quite tasty. Not at all like a Black Wax Idol.

	I throw them at the screen but Deej only takes 19.99

	3 RepliesGood news everybody! [spoiler]it's a suppository[/spoiler]

	I say "eat a synth" sometimes as a joke. Do you eat black wax idols or blue polyphages? Id assume you eat ether seeds
- 
   
	I don't know about you, but my friends and I don't call them ammo synthesis anymore. They're called ammo cakes. The purple one is the best.

	Wait..... You have to EAT them?! That's why the don't work! I shove them up my ass for 6 month now and it never works! Thanks for helping!

	If you peel the covering, and eat it. It's really just a candy bar.
- 
   
	No, we all pop them like a balloon. 'Poppin' a synth'
- 
   
	It says your Ghost manufactures ammo out of the synths.
- 
   
	I dont usually play with anyone else
- 
   
	We are all junkies. This realization after one year. Damn it Bungie.

	Only time I've known something to eat a synth is after I've used one and proceeded to shove my shotgun into the enemies mouth.

	Ammo cake
- 
   
	I say "crack a synth"
- 
   
	Pop a synth I'm sweatin! Wooo!
- 
   
	Well they are called "consumables" so why not say eat? I'm not saying you literarily eat em but eat can be used in multiple ways. Like "wow I just ate a fusion grenade" if you are somehow able to survive a fusion grenade cuz you have ram and max armor

	Pop a synth I'm sweatin! Wooo!
- 
   
	I've always heard "pop a heavy"
- 
   
	doesn't everybody eat rockets and special ammo?
- 
   
	2 RepliesI pull them out of my pocket and bash them against my face until I have full ammo.

	2 Repliesi always imagined my guardian breaking the brick in his hand and then getting ammo all of the sudden.....
