You know what's a complete waste of time, money, and effort? Eating. I mean, wouldn't you rather just ingest a tasteless form of sustenance for the rest of your life and never have to go through that tedious rigmarole of opening and eating a premade sandwich or feasting on a pile of fried delicacies ever again? Rob Rhinehart—a 24-year-old software engineer from Atlanta and, presumably, an impossibly busy man—thinks so.

Rob found himself resenting the inordinate amount time it takes to fry an egg in the morning and decided something had to be done. Simplifying food as "nutrients required by the body to function" (which sounds totally bulimic, I know, but I promise it's not), Rob has come up with an odorless beige cocktail that he's named Soylent.

I wasn't sure if he was trolling at first because that's the name of a wafer made out of human flesh and fed to the masses in the seminal 1973 sci-fi film Soylent Green, but then I read the extensive post on Rob's blog about how he came to make the stuff, and I started to believe he was serious. Soylent contains all the nutritive components of a balanced diet but just a third of the calories and none of the toxins or cancer-causing stuff you'd usually find in your lunch of processed foods. Despite the fact that it looks a bit like vomit, Soylent supposedly has the potential to change the entire world's relationship with food

This Man Thinks He Never Has to Eat Again | VICE United States


Wondering what's in it?

What’s In Soylent : Mostly Harmless

I hate the amount of time spent on buying groceries and cooking, I hope this thing works and gets manufactured.
 


Really cool article.

I love eating but I hate the process of acquiring food. I could easily live on a diet like that if I knew it was healthy.

I eat raw eggs all the time bc I'm too lazy to cook them

He basically just went on a juice fast but instead of juicing fruits and vegetables he bought all the micronutrients/etc and mixed them together into some concoction. That's how I see it anyway - his results are even pretty similar to people who have done juice fasts. More energy, clearer skin, etc. Some placebo effect in there as well I'm sure.

I wonder what your farts smell like on this diet Mike?
 
I would never go on a liquid diet or fast for more than 48 hours and I sure as fuck would never drink Soylent. I love eating... and this is coming from a guy who lost 90 lbs of body fat.

Those juicing diets and fruit diets will never hold up. It's just another fad.. Your body will eventually crash from the lack of protein and excess amount of sugars (idc if they're natural).

IMHO... if you want to live long (to 100)... you should should be eating a lot of protein and healthy fats to thicken up your body.

This is the only diet that will give you sustainable energy in the long term...

I know you pricks are ballin' but damn.... let's say there IS an epic food shortage in the next 2...5...10 years... It's going to be a son-of-a-bitch to get the variety of food choices that we have available to us.

Oh, and inb4 suddenlyass lol
 
No more eating
No work coz there's welfare
No more stepping out of closet
No GF
No more giving a fuck about anything

Life would get boring quick. I suspect suicide rate would climb quickly with this

Get a good woman. Never spend time cooking again. ??? Profit.

The stuff that takes no time to make in your kitchen usually tastes like shit. Fried eggs are shit. The real good home made food takes hours. Ain't nobody got time for dat! Except possibly your woman.

I forget what it's called but there's an actual name for the negative psychological effects of eating the exact same thing all of time. It turns out we crave variety in tastes. That's a big reason why this thing hasn't really been done before by choice.
