My uncle, who admittedly is pretty weird, used to only eat Costco pasta and peanut butter for 95% of his meals. The other 5% of the time he had lavish dinners with friends and family, and felt free to spend quite a bit. His logic was "I would rather have one amazing meal every now and again instead of a bunch of mediocre meals spread out." This may or may not be insane to you in terms of philosophy, but the biggest flaw is that he only ate two kinds of food for weeks on end. I imagine Soylent would be perfect for people like this: on a limited budget they can enjoy the occasional lavish meal without sacrificing nutrition for all their other meals. From the people I know who like the product, it seems to me that Soylent caters to people whose eating patters are already strange. I find it appealing because I tend to obsess over making sure I'm getting all the right nutrients and food groups (I never am). I like the idea of drinking Soylent every morning as an insurance policy, I know I'm at least getting all the nutrients I need once a day.
