It sounds like the FDA classified it for them. Given: - The FDA considers it a food - Soylent considers it a food - Soylent users are on record as consuming mostly or all the product for their primary complete food source.. - ..over long periods of time, including the founder, who supposedly lives on the stuff. - Of those users, most are reporting positive results... - ..and the negative results are generally of the classes "don't like the taste" / "gave me bad gas" ..then I'm left to conclude that it is a food, and a pretty good one at that.
