As someone who also loves food and preparing it, I am also a consumer of Soylent.
While it takes away the joy of a well prepared meal it gives that back in time and convenience. I can't help but spend too much time in the kitchen when I'm making something. I go overboard and over do it to a fault.
With a food like Soylent I can get in and out in minutes. Eating Soylent does not mean you can't spend time making a great meal when you have the opportunity too. After several weeks on this new food I appreciate my home cooked meal much more than I had in the past. Win-Win as far as I'm concerned.

- Nevermark 12y agoDIVx0 (yes, that is his/her natural name) is my neighbor and I wondered the same thing so I began a period of systematic surveillance. Basically I just tapped into the NSA's feed so I can't really take any credit for that. DIVx0 spends a lot of time reading about Soylent, posting on /r/Soylent, Facebooking and Twitting his experiences, and otherwise communicating and mentoring other Soylent users or prospects. The conclusion he and all his Soylent colleagues have come to is that they really do save a lot of time. Occasionally DIVx0 stays up till 1:00am or later writing poetry and odes to Soylent. I thought all of this was really ironic until I checked the NSA's archives and found that in fact DIVx0 used to spend about twice that amount of time preparing, eating, and discussing salsa dip.
