Haha of course, hence the "I doubt that'll happen anytime soon." Though I wouldn't be surprised if it became commonplace for people to swap out their breakfasts for something like Soylent in the near future. I already do something similar by throwing milk, protein powder, ground up oatmeal, and flax seeds into a blender every morning. The convenience is pretty overwhelming, and it has a much better nutrition profile than a bowl of cereal.

I do the same for breakfast, but I feel more comfortable doing so because most of those foods are regulated. I don't believe protein powder is, which is a little scary considering how often it's consumed. If Soylent is to be treated as a supplement (lack of regulation) that is consumed exclusively, it's even more unnerving.

Yeah, thanks for that recipe. I've been drinking those shakes for a week or two now, and I think I feel better.

The recipe, for those who are curious:

- 1/2-1 cup raw oatmeal

- 1-2 tablespoon(s) peanut butter

- 1 scoop whey protein powder (I use Gold Standard Double Chocolate)

- 1 tablespoon flax seeds

- 1 banana

- 1-2 cups milk

Blend the oatmeal and flax seeds into small bits before adding the rest, then add the rest and blend. Chocolate-banana-peanut butter taste, and a pretty good mix of nutrients.
