Blegh, maybe eventually, but I doubt it. We can already eat healthy and balanced diets today. No need to wait until they perfect some formula.
I know some people might want to use this just for a quick bite (er, slurp?) when they're in a rush, but the creator's original post indicated that he was consuming soylent for every meal because, for some reason, he found the act of chewing to be somewhat tiresome. Are soylent fans just so busy that they don't have time to eat a good meal each day? If so, you may want to rethink your choices in life. Slow down, take things easier, enjoy life's simple pleasures. Building that game-changing app or chasing VC money can wait until after dinner.
- JoshTriplett 13y agoSounds like you're not in the target market, then, because you're attached to the concept of a meal. Don't assume that anyone who is in the target market has something wrong with them and needs to "rethink [their] choices in life". The issue isn't "so busy", it's "better things to do with that time". Total up the amount of time you spend shopping for food, preparing food, storing food, and eating food. Are you saying you can't think of any better uses for that time? Also note that making meal consumption optional doesn't prevent you from partaking in it as a social occasion whenever you want. But in general, the target market for this considers the need to consume food, much like the need to sleep, an annoying biological requirement rather than a feature. Patches welcome.
