I'm pretty sure joylent lost me a job once. I was there consulting but they were making good noises about an extension.

Then I tried a week on joylent. I emitted smells I have only previously come across in a hospital. The putrid reak of a gut in very great distress.

It goes away in a few days, said the internet. So I kept faith and held on for a week, then a second.

One morning I came in to find my desk had been moved to the break area. 'we noticed that your are ill so we thought it was better all round if you weren't here with the team'

I dropped joylent after that, and my bowels went back to normal. But the damage was done (indeed I had to bin some of my trousers as the damage seemed embedded in them).

So I say, joylent, okay, but only if you work from home and don't cohabit.

Too bad about the problems you had with your colon. But guts are complex systems, and it sounds like yours was not prepared for the stuff in those shakes.

Fortunately I've not experienced what you experienced... and I'm on my 40th bag or so (3 shakes per bag).
