Exactly. Twice this week I've been in meetings that ran long and left me with no time for lunch.
I keep a box of soylent under my desk specifically for days like this. Without food I get "hangry" and can't concentrate.
I can chug a bottle of soylent in a minute or two between meetings, or sip from it instead of from a water glass, without being even as disruptive as an energy bar would be. (Plus I can't stand how sugary those things are.)
It's a terrible substitute for a salad but there's every reason to believe it's better for you than a slice of pizza or a bag of chips. Like any other food, it has a place in a healthy diet as long as it's in moderation.
