>run the numbers! don't guess!
you can't just run numbers. none of the daily recommended numbers tell us what will happen when you eat the stuff for 100% of your meals for 10 or 20 years. On the other hand, eating a variety of normal has been shown over thousands of years to be mostly reasonable. Soylent may or may not be fine and even better for people, but numbers in a chart simply can't possibly tell us that.
>It tastes "meh". But so do most things.
I think you must have been eating the wrong things. I enjoy pretty much everything I ever eat (and avoid things that I don't like to eat) while sticking as much as possible to "healthy" foods. Frankly I think eating is one of the most enjoyable activities in life, IMO.
Now that being said, I can still see a reasonable argument for using soylent for maybe 1 meal a day, likely breakfast as a time saver. I can't even remotely imagine replacing all meals with it.
