I thought about this, but all the food you eat was trucked to a distribution center, then trucked to the store, then driven home by you. There’s lots of packaging involved there too. Meanwhile a shipment of soylent goes straight to you, cutting out all those middlemen.

I'd be interested to see if someone has done the analysis to see if 2000kcal of soylent uses less resources to ship than the same amount of calories from a grocery store.

It may use less than legacy solid foods, but it's significantly less efficient than powder in bags. With that said, bottled Soylent is much more convenient. I'm hopeful that they will improve the powder packaging and composition to make preparation easier.
