What is Soylent?

Показать описание
The question we hear most often is, “What is Soylent?”

While you, our valued community members, have journeyed with us through the development of Soylent 2.0, we recognize that the idea of a nutritionally complete meal-in-a-bottle is still an unfamiliar concept to most of the larger population.

Misconceptions abound surrounding Soylent. That’s to be expected with anything new and different. We often find ourselves answering the same questions:

“No, you don’t have to drink Soylent for every meal.”

“Yes, Soylent is recognized as a food by the FDA.”

“No, we have no relationship with Charlton Heston.”

But this is part of our responsibility as a transparent company, one that is dedicated to a community of engaged customers. We are passionate about addressing your curiosity with honest, straightforward explanations.

As we continue to grow and enter new markets, we anticipate answering many more of these familiar questions. To assist in this task, we have produced a brief explainer video that answers, “What is Soylent?” This video will live on the Soylent homepage. Consider it a welcome mat for friends and strangers alike, for whom our light's always on, our door's always open, and our fridge is always stocked with ice cold Soylent.

My wife's boyfriend recommended this to me. I will consider purchasing after I finish watching Rick and Morty and playing Animal Crossing!

The company has a huge human resources department.

The world is full of wonderful foods. From Italian Carbonara to fine French Beef Burgeneon, Butter Chicken to Pad Thai, Pierogis to Sushi, Burgers and fries to Apple Pies. Each with their own smells, textures and tastes. Each one accompanied by others which play off each other. This is an art form. A thing of beauty. An art-form we see across numerous cultures with myriad permutations. It brings us together.


Why replace them all with some bland sludge?

What I got from this video: Drink Soylent and become a sexy hipster.

No animal products, only human products.

Today, I made my first visit to a grocery store in months and saw others browsing, searching, and comparing ingredients for their meals. I left in a few minutes with a box of Cherry Pop Tarts. Thank you, Soylent! I AM FREE!

Soylent Green takes place in 2022, and with all the political stuff happening in the world at the moment and GOD!

Edit: It is now the year 2022... and my comment still stands.

You guys have SERIOUS guts if you discovered the movie reference and still kept the name. Obviously your product isn't made from people (he says, with a hint of unease) but the cultural impact of the movie can't be ignored.

This product sounds awesome, but it will never not be a big joke.

It is bad enough that the name is soylent with people thinking soylent green however it being a drink makes it worse because the best way to mask a flavor is to liquidate it

So they went with the name soylent? For a meal replacement/ supplement? Am i the only one that thinks that was a really bad name choice? Like, does nobody in this company sees a potential problem with that name?

2 things: 1 i saw an Ad for soylent and instantly thought it was a movie trailer or something because i'm like "did they not see soylent green?" and then at 1:43 they start talking about algae i had to stop them because in the movie soylent green they said that soylent green was made out of high energy plankton, and algae is a type of plankton if google tells me anything. so again, did they not see soylent green?

400 calories from a liquid? A salad is time proven to be better for us and we know exactly what's in it.

What kind of people do I get to drink? I need my daily calcium intake so i'm hoping that you'll release a Euro Flavor.

Delicious, nutritious, fast, and cheap. I love using it for breakfast and sometimes lunch to save time. How can you go wrong?

am i the only one who thinks this is creepy as fuck, especially since the reason for starvation in the movie was the death of the Pacific ocean?! and now we have a dead pacific due to Fukushima and a "food" company named soylent. hmmm.. SOYLENT GREEN IS 😲
