What worries me most, and why I stopped Soylent, is that the quality is not in their hands, but in the hands of their suppliers. Do they test everything that they receive to confirm that it is what the supplier says it is?
- stupidhn 9y ago>What worries me most, and why I stopped Soylent, is that the quality is not in their hands, but in the hands of their suppliers. Yep. We kicked around startup ideas based on the supplement industry, but the liability surrounding selling products you can't fully control seemed a bit rough for a small business.
- mrgoldenbrown 9y agoThe amount of things that Soylent had plenty of control over and still got wrong worries me more, because that means they probably don't test everything :(
- tedmiston 9y agoI'm mostly happy as a Soylent customer, but they definitely have some issues in their order fulfillment as well. I've had shipments charge on my card and show up as processing in the dashboard but never ship (usually they go from ordered to shipped in 24-48 hours). After contacting them a week later, they simply said that my order had "gotten lost". Others have discussed this on Reddit and it seems to be relatively common.
