Stupid question: I looked up Soylent, and I am confused: you have a large group of people who totally doesn’t care how their means feel in the stomach? I mean, who don’t care about the joy of eating as such, and don’t want the kind of warm and glowy effect in the stomach that comes from say a good greasy Chinese takeaway? (Taste in the mouth is IMHO not so important, things like the greasy feel in the stomach, the weight felt from filling meat, or the carb high on rice matter more.)
At least your product looks like some kind of a wholemeal cake, although I still doubt I could feel satisfied from something not warm and not greasy, but that is a step closer to a normal meal. (But why five a day portions? Because the kind of health-oriented people who buy this are also the same kind of people who buy the health industries many small meals thing instead of the standard 3? I personally think 3 meals work better because you get to feel stuffed and enjoy that, with 5 you are never hungry but also never feel a full house feeling.)
I think the next best thing could be health food that does not taste like healthfood, for people like me who don’
t go anywhere near health food. Say, the least bad carb is probably wholemeal rye. The issue with wholemeal pastas is usually that they feel like chewing sand, but if ground down really fine, like Graham, maybe one could make borderline enjoyable noodles from them. Stir-fry vegan mystery meat and vegs with spices and souce in an ample amount of coconut oil, as coconut oil is close enough to grease, add to the noodles and you probably get a health food that feels like a not health food.
