"Soylent is a brand of meal replacement products available in the U.S., named after an artificial food in the science-fiction novel Make Room! Make Room! Soylent was introduced in 2014 after a crowdfunding campaign that generated nearly $1.5 million in preorders.[3]

Its producer, Rosa Foods, says that Soylent meets all nutritional requirements for an average adult.[4] Initial recipes were first created and tested by software engineer Rob Rhinehart[5] as a self-experiment in nutrition. Subsequently, the powdered version of Soylent was developed into the first product line of Rosa Foods, which currently markets and sells the product. For about two months in late 2016, the company also marketed a solid-form meal bar under the brand name as well, but it was discontinued after reports that it caused gastrointestinal problems for some consumers. Sales of the powdered version were also halted briefly in late 2016 before the product was reformulated and its sales resumed."
This stuff seems nasty as fuck.

6'2", 170 lbs, lowish body fat (around 12% last I checked) with probably small-average build

I originally did it because I was very busy doing grad school, and wouldnt have much time to cook as well as not being home sometimes for 16hrs a day. I always ended up eat just garbage food or getting takeout. I got Soylent for a cheaper alternative (the powder is a lot cheaper) and for something that was 'healthy' as in relative to what I'd eat otherwise. I stopped only drinking it because it was too much, but I have it always for breakfast for convince and I'm usually too lazy to make a proper breakfast as I hate waking up.

Also, no, as far as I remember it had no impact on my sex drive. If anything I was eating better than I had before and I had more energy after a long stressful day

I bought a few soylent a few weeks ago. They weren't unopenable by any means, but I will attest that they are tighter than the caps on most products. I imagine someone with small hands, or someone who doesn't perform manual labor could have a problem with them.

They're also stupid expensive for a shitty macro profile, and taste terrible. So going out of your way to buy something to open them seems like the height of retardation.

yes, but consider this: for a body builder to gain muscle mass they need to eat more calories than they burn, oftentimes 3k or more. So, any mealplan based off of soylent will prob only give 2k, maybe 2.5k at most, with not nearly enough protein to gain muscle.

I am sick of this belief. This is a cooking board for fuck's sake, we make good tasting food here, the ingredients do not concern us for the most part. Are you guys really so paranoid that you think a couple of soy beans will turn you into a fucking bufty?
Even if soy does contain xenoestrogens, you can counteract those by maybe exercising 15 minutes a day. Think of athletes, they eat a whole shit ton of calories but they exercise that out of their systems. You just need to generate more testosterone than the xenoestrogen you're consuming. Its that simple

If you can't exercise 15 minutes a day, you have far bigger problems than worrying about a certain kind of beans in your food

That bottle of soylent has 400 calories and 20g of protein. Drinking 8 of those a day gives 3200 calories and 160g of protein, more than enough protein to build muscle.
