It is a fantastic brand - and that's all it ever was. It was never revolutionary.

Soylent was always just a lifestyle brand that put an already existing product - liquid meal replacements - into the hands of people who weren't elderly or bodybuilders, namely: nerds.

Like all mainstream consumer products, Soylent is a marketing company that also makes food. Now they're admitting it.
