Can't you keep some fruits like strawberry or bananas handy?

I do! But strawberries, bananas, apples, even nuts don't feel like a full meal. I always feel oddly and uncomfortably unsaturated after eating them.
The closest I ever got was avocado. Avocado is delicious and satiating. Takes a bit to prepare, but that's okay.
Avocado: the true Soylent competitor?
(Probably not. :))

Hehehe...I think the argument made here is perishability/storage since they spoil easy. But that brings up another point: dried fruits, nuts etc. are excellent sources of nutrition, and I would certainly prefer that over Soylent.
