Soylent 2.0 Comes Bottled and Ready To Drink
An anonymous reader writes: Soylent has announced today their latest product, Soylent 2.0. It comes premixed and ready to drink in recyclable bottles. Each bottle is one fifth of a scientifically balanced daily meal plan, will last up to a year unrefrigerated, and will cost you $2.42. A Soylent blog post reads in part: "Not only are its ingredients vegan, Soylent 2.0 reaches an unprecedented level of environmental sustainability with half of its fat energy coming from farm-free, algae sources. This next generation agricultural technology has the potential to reduce the ecological impact of food production by orders of magnitude, signifying a major step towards a future of abundance, a world where optimal nutrition is the new normal."
I'm waiting for their Green formula.

It's a single-celled protein combined with synthetic aminos, vitamins, and minerals. Everything the body needs.

Who the f*** wants to drink pureed vegans?
If I'm going to get my liquid cannibal on, I want the taste of real hamburger-fed 'muricans!
I forgot about Soylent. I read the headline and thought, "Wow, Soylent News' new business model is pretty interesting!"
"...Wait, why is this on Slashdot..?" //reads more carefully:
"Oh."

The "benefit" of Soylent is you can make millions of dollars by convincing other wannabe-millionaires by giving them Life Hacks(tm) so they can Bro Down(tm) and Code(tm). Flavor is an impediment to Productivity(tm). Concern for presentation is an impediment to Agility(tm). Time that you spend cooking and eating food with flavor is time that could be spent Disrupting(tm).
You have time for eating something as pedestrian as food, and you further demand that your food have flavor? If you aren't spending every waking minute on your Startup(tm), you're obviously not Passionate(tm) about it. Bro, do you even Lyft(tm)?

You're thinking of Soylent Brown.
"You're right," Fisheye says. "I should have set it on 'whip' or 'chop.'"
It's easier if you catch it in the wild than try to get it to go through all those turnstiles to be slaughtered.
Well, there's not much wrong with free-range, locally-sourced algae, but the real problems come from the container-bred, factory-farmed algae.
farmed algae is inhumane. Constrained to live in limited vats I eat only free range algae. They get to exercise you see.
XML is like violence. If it doesn't solve the problem, use more.

Actually, the taste varies from person to person.

Obviously, the vegans it's made from. This is revenge of the best kind - environmentally sensitive vengeance.
Soylent , I would suggest following this up with a solid, sweetened product, in a variety of flavors, called Just Desserts

disturbingly neutral. Like scientifically engineered inoffensive blandness.
So English food?
i can buy a pound of hamburger, one tomato, one onion, head of lettuce, loaf of bread, for about 20 bucks, and cook four hamburgers, and feed four people and it will taste a heck of a lot better, thats about 5 bucks each a day, a lot better than a liquid diet too
But that's not nutritionally complete.
You need to add bacon and cheddar cheese.
