Based on discussions I’ve had with people about soylent, this seems about right. It’s a really, really appealing idea to someone like me who often thinks of food as a problem to solve rather than an enjoyment, but it appears that a lot of people enjoy food more frequently than I do. It also sounds like there’s not much additional benefit to consuming soylent exclusively, so the optimal way to eat it would probably be some mix of soylent and your favorite foods.
I would love to have soylent as a backup food. Like, when I care about food, I buy or prepare one, but when I don’t care, I can always take soylent from the freezer, and once in a time order another large package.
I can imagine that after some time it would become eating soylent at home or at work, and eating normal food only in social situations.
