Who could possibly stuff a whole block into their face? Be realistic.

The only quote we have from the Hobbit on Smaug's corpse said they could see his bones from the surface- no scales. I presume they rotted away. It is mentioned that after Bard gave him much dragon gold, the old master of Lake-town fled and went mad from dragon sickness. I can't be bothered atm to get a quote for it but Itd there I tell you! "From that treasure Bard sent much gold to the Master of Lake-town; and he rewarded his followers and friends freely."

Nothing in there about dragon-sickness. As my copy of the hobbit is currently at my mums house, I will trust you on that one.
