    I actually have quite enjoyed Soylent!

    However, it’s designed for people with normal metabolisms and digestive systems.

    My metabolism is giga fucked forever and I’ve basically already consumed an entire lifetime’s worth of carbohydrates. So carbs make me sick. Joint pain, inflammation, swelling in the extremities of my limbs, fatigue, trouble sleeping… I know it’s carbs because these symptoms stop when I stop eating carbohydrates.

    They’re just really gods damned hard to avoid.

      Sorry to hear that! But yeah, I enjoy it too. It took a couple of tries to get used to the soy flavor, but after that, it’s great! If I’m too depressed or lazy to feed myself I can just make a glass of sweet vanilla-dlavored dystopian slop and that’s it. It’s great mixed with fruit and yogurt too.
