I probably didn't word it that well; I meant that if you don't enjoy eating food that you like the taste of, there's something wrong with you. It's a normal human thing to like to eat, and to eat things you think are tasty. Unfortunately, modern low-quality unhealthy foods are engineered to be tasty, but this doesn't mean there's something seriously wrong with people who like them. I didn't mean "good food" as only high-quality, nutritious food, just something you like to eat and enjoy eating, even if it isn't that healthy.

The people who really have something wrong with them here are those who actually don't enjoy eating any food, and see it strictly as a biologically-necessary chore. Those are the people who seem to be attracted to Soylent. Yes, I really do think there's something wrong with these people.

Maybe if you're only eating Soylent but the vast majority are simply people who don't want to cook for one reason or another. I eat Huel a few times a week and I really like it. I also think it's pretty tasty but most of all it's convenient.

It’s died down a bit now, but 5-10 years ago there was a very vocal group of people that insisted on only having shakes and that food/cooking was outdated.

Yeah, I'm not talking about people who just want something convenient and nutritious when they're in a hurry, I'm talking about extremists who genuinely don't like eating anything ever and treat it like needing to use a toilet.
