Fair enough, but fish oil is just for omega 3, right? Which is prevalent in many veggies; rice protein will obviously only be in rice, but it's probably equivalent to protein in other veggies; I'd be surprised if Gum Arabic is used for more than texture.

Not that I'm not excited about soylent - I most definitely am, and hope to make it my lunch at work. At ~$4 a meal it's still a little too expensive for just a healthy filler until I get home (my current meal: beans/lentils and mixed veggies), but when it comes down a bit it will be great for me. Yet I feel some around here are anointing it as the end-all-be-all of healthy consumption, superior to natural options, which I'd argue is a bit premature. And I'm not educated enough to speculate on benefits of nutrients in plants vs. those industrially derived.

We don't even know the truth about something as engrained in the health-conscious public as omega-3 fats.
