Just test these for a week or two. I found the taste and texture intolerable after two days

Been on it since 2018. Also watching my health closely with tons of lab tests. I’ve never been in a better shape. I’m 29.

As for the taste - not sure about Soylent, but JimmyJoy is very tasty.

Really? I tried JimmyJoy and had to throw it all in the trash after the first three. I found it absolutely horrible.

I would love a pill that would give me all the amino acids I need; but I couldn't swallow this.

They are continuously improving the taste, particularly after 2020

I think it's a matter of experimentation. I've been having Aussielent (Australian version of Soylent) for about 5 years for breakfast and still really enjoy it. I use the vanilla flavour, make it with hot water, and put a squirt of honey in it - it's like liquid porridge.
