Every person in this thread who is "shocked" why anyone would want soylent is using this whole "good healthy REAL food" bs and it's honestly nauseating. It reminds me of advertising for "artisanal" products and it also reminds me of people complaining about how the world is too fast paced and you need to slow down and get some fresh air. No, I don't.

Anyway, your post in particular made me pull the trigger on buying this.

I've been using Soylent for breakfast for about a year now. I really like it, and it's nice not to have to worry about breakfast which occurs at a time of day I am not interested in food preparation. I save that for the weekend when I enjoy cooking.

The rest of the time, I eat "regular food".

Sorry for the nausea - it's only after posting that I realised I could have been less antagonising. It's good to hear your opinions though.
