I do not understand why people think it's okay to make such assertions without backing them up. Is it not obvious to you that this statement is just plain false?
If you think Soylent lacks something to be a total food replacement, or have any constructive criticism - please share it with us. But don't just throw random silly things out there.
That's not what I'm saying.
Everyone is like, "Soylent is revolutionary." But when you look at the ingredients in a mass gainer, particularly something like Aronld Iron Mass, they're nearly identical. Maybe some slight vitamin tweaking to make a bodybuilding weight gainer a full food replacement, but really, that's not "revolutionary."
Soylent is the same old ingredients, different marketing.
What's "revolutionary" is they're touting them as a food replacement, which I'm guessing supplement manufacturers avoid doing for fear of liability.
Hospitals regularly feed people pre-mixed meal replacements when chewing food is not an option.
Soylent is just another old MRP with stupid "geek" marketing. Which should come as no surprise as the rest of the athletic supplement and MRP market is also just basic macronutrients and hokum with "bro" marketing. I can't wait for Soylent Monster Xtreme with Branched Chain Amino Acids. There's nothing wrong with it. Its probably no more over-priced than GNC. The only new things about it is its press on tech sites.
Which you think might know better, but the tech world is so narrow minded that obvious cons like this one can turn into a viable business.
