by posting your tolerance of soylent here, you have made all other food taste bad for other people and also permanently enlisted yourself into the new revolution alien spacefood corporation army, which is on a collision course with the the normal food-eaters of earth and must be destroyed before their 1.15x productivity bonus compounds enough to overwhelm the old-timers that retain the ability to enjoy the taste of a well-cooked meal
i still have never tried soylent

whats funny is because soylent is vc funded by ppl who usually invest in apps its doomed to go out of business once those ppl realize theyve invested in a protein shake not an 10000000x multiplier unicorn

i mean there are a fuckload of similar products available mostly made by experienced food companies, but only one of them has super creepy marketing and frequent contamination issues

I eat like one kirkland protein bar a day - they are strangely good and bad at the same time. They aren't quite complete nutrition in the sense of having all the vitamins and whatever you supposedly need, but they do have a good amount of both protein and fiber.

i used to do an odwalla / fruit smoothie for meal replacement

xp Wait Soylent is only 400 calories? The Naked juice protein shake is about at that and is pretty decent.
yah or Odwalla, pretty much any of the decent fruit smoothie brands

this is what totally killed me about the vegan mayo scammer people that were buying up stores worth of their product to artificially inflate the numbers -- people actually like their product! I figured it was hot garbage and the sales were all fake, but a few food review people really like it. It's just that there's no exponential growth curve for selling fake mayonnaise.

I just had a tooth extracted and I guess I'll try to survive the very soft foods only period with Soylent and maybe tomato or butternut squash soup to break the misery.

Life with my daughter showed me that a surprisingly wide array of foods can be successfully puréed. (But pasta isn't one of them.)
