Soylent is a mediocre product with great marketing. That is unfortunately the curse of capitalism - it isn't the best product that wins, rather the best _promoted_ product that is at least barely acceptable.

On the plus side, given Soylent is mediocre, I suspect that it can only expand the market for functional foods.
