I see Soylent is now completely vegan. This is interesting and will appeal to a new community for a range of ethical and environmental reasons, especially if it can deal with many of the common nutritional issues (B12, iron). I think another interesting marketing angle for the future of Soylent would be a measure of its carbon emissions[1,2] especially considering the somewhat unique distribution mechanism.
