Soylent Taste Test

I don't understand why Soylent receives the press it does, meal-replacement shakes have been on the market for quite a long time. The entire phenomenon seems to just be a marketing gimmick around some misguided notion of it "replacing food".

I wouldn&#x27;t mind a product that can replace food, if it&#x27;s cheaper, more convenient, provides all necessary nutrition and eliminates the feeling of hunger.<p>However the biggest issue I have with Soylent is that I cannot trust it. It hasn&#x27;t been tested long term and it doesn&#x27;t sound like it&#x27;s being developed by people who know what they are doing.<p>Also let&#x27;s stop pretending it&#x27;s something new, stuff like Plumpy&#x27;nut have existed for a while, used in developing nations for malnutrition treatment. I bet it would be as effective as Soylent as a food replacement for a few months. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plumpy%27nut" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Plumpy%27nut</a>

I like what Chris Dixon had to say on Twitter: &quot;NY Times has a wine critic review Soylent. Reminiscent of the time they had a literary critic review Twitter.&quot;<p><a href="https://twitter.com/cdixon/status/472159432332148736" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;twitter.com&#x2F;cdixon&#x2F;status&#x2F;472159432332148736</a>

&quot;The modern man does what he can so that he doesn&#x27;t have to walk, doesn&#x27;t have to lift heavy things, doesn&#x27;t have to sweat, doesn&#x27;t have to meet others in person, doesn&#x27;t have to take responsibility, doesn&#x27;t have to love, doesn&#x27;t have to hate, doesn&#x27;t have to care, doesn&#x27;t have to cook and even doesn&#x27;t have to eat! So in the end he doesn&#x27;t have anything! He has no life left as it all has been artificially removed from him so that he could just do nothing, accomplish nothing, think nothing, be nothing and live not and be comfortably nothing. Comfort is death. Life is a struggle. Life is a messy, unsanitary and trigger tripping struggle.&quot;

Sometimes i have a hard time telling if the hostility towards Soylent is just normal HN flare, or something meaningful.<p>Sometimes i think people assume we&#x27;re going to force Soylent on them o_O

People interested in Soylent may be interested in the whole food alternatives, MealSquares and Ambronite.

My biggest gripe, which has me real close to complaining to the times about it, is he didn&#x27;t even talk about any of the other avenues of flavoring the product that the owners advertise themselves. Never once mentioned adding chocolate, or vanilla, or peanut butter. You can add anything you want. It helps, isn&#x27;t great, but it makes it much better. Also he didn&#x27;t mention if he left it in the fridge for a few hours to let it settle. Which you&#x27;re supposed to do in order to let the rice protein mix well. All of which the owners mention, but no actual facts are in the article. It felt like he wanted to complain.

There was a big debate on HN about the accompanying article yesterday: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7814005" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=7814005</a>

Spoiler alert: it doesn&#x27;t taste like much.<p>As for the rest, it&#x27;s the usual Soylent article being rehashed. If you&#x27;re looking for a bland, cheap alternative to journalism, this is for you.

From my prospective Soylent does not taste like anything because it has never been shipped to me after receiving one notice of delay after another. I bought a week supply on Kickstarter nothing ever arrived after what seems to be a close to a year. They have missed multiple delivery time frames. I have since bought some competing products (Phood) while I waited and still wait.

I&#x27;ve been wondering what it tastes like. Glad to hear other people describe it!

Personally, I&#x27;m looking forward to Soylent being available at grocery stores...
