We changed the url from http://www.foodnavigator-usa.com/Manufacturers/Soylent-hits-... since this is the original source.

Thanks for changing. I don't know if you happened to notice, but among others things, the original link takes a dim view of fair use. If you try to copy any piece of text from the original article, it denies you with a message "THIS CONTENT IS COPYRIGHT PROTECTED". The incredible part was that I had been trying to copy part of a quote from a third party to find the original source.

Oh dear. That's pretty bad.

It's like those sites that append a long string of junk to whatever you copy, only worse. I usually see that on media sites that seem a bit technically naive, and always imagine the conversation with the salesperson who convinced them they needed it.
