Don't forget:

"Soylent™ was developed from a need for a simpler food source."

"No need to shop for individual ingredients or plan ahead" (I think this one was Mealsquares)

"You’ve got more important things to do than worry about food."

"Enjoy a 26 hour day"

I wrote a parody post based on the marketing on the web page and my own personal outrage with the claims:

I still believe my note is true:

    Note: Neither Soylent nor Mealsquares make any public claims that I could find, 
    beneficial or otherwise, about using their product for the complete nutrition 
    of women, especially those expecting or nursing, children, teenagers, the 
    elderly, or people with medical conditions, including malnutrition. I think 
    it’s probably optimized for healthy males, aged 20–40-ish, or in the words 
    of Soylent: “All Adults”, but I don’t have a B.S. in Electrical Engineering 
    like Rob, so I probably shouldn’t comment. 
    
    Please proceed at your own risk just in case.
