I seem to remember Soylent being about logically and efficiently getting nutrients into you because flavor, consistency, and food preparation are for fire-worshipping luddites, which real tech geniuses have no time in their productive lives for.

Now there's a bunch of flavors, shapes, textures, even sauces and things you can mix together? It's starting to seem like a *gasp* normal food product!

Gotta actually sell it, you know?

(I have actually tried Soylent.)

Depends. I didn't have the proper mixing kit (as a friend who knows my love of odd foods gave me a bag), so I did it by hand. It was the standard "flavor". Which is pretty much that of REALLY wet oatmeal.

I didn't live off of it, as I only had one bag, but, as someone who's stomach has issues with eating too soon after waking up, I did use it for several days as a breakfast replacement. Placebo effect notwithstanding, my energy levels did seem much better on the days I did Soylent, as opposed to anything else. OTOH, I am not :spergin: enough to even consider living off of it as a sole food.

Had some tea eggs. They were interesting, basically tea and spices you soak hardboiled eggs in, the first is a quail egg and was good. the second is a duck egg and made me almost throw up because it was so rich and overwhelming.

We got some here to feed to students. It was the basic unflavored kind and indeed had no real flavor. A vague grassy grain-ness from the soy. We were hoping it'd be disgusting so it would be torture for the students but it was just zero.

It's pretty okay. Kind of tastes like cheap soy milk, with a little oatmeal and just a hint of paper.
