/ck/ - Food & Cooking

>>10533083
$15 dollars a day isn’t bad considering the average meal at mcds is at least $5 each
So breakfast, lunch, and dinner, that’s not bad

>>10533182
not if you order with an ounce of sense.

>>10533117
Ahhh it's that thing the left does where they just repeat every insult thrown against them, even when it isn't applicable such as in that image.

>>10533083
Is soylent even tasty? I feel like trying it, but it's not easily available in my country.
Although I have never even drank soy milk. Almond milk is very tasty though

>>10533202
>implying it's not applicable
/pol/ is full of emasculated, insecure nerds, which is why they always freak out about trace amounts of estrogen in the first place

>>10533202
Is this political satire?

>>10533276
Not a single one of those people is doing the soylent grin you fucking nu-male leftard.

>>10533276
If you are a male you shouldn't be okay with consuming ANY amount of estrogen

>>10533444
doesn't like, every animal product and most soys contain estrogen? so your just supposed to like, eat nothing but nuts?

>>10533182
you could probably be fine with like 2 mcchickens per meal.
they're a dollar each

>>10533182
A family restaurant is like 3 dollars a meal.

>>10533450
no, only certain fruits and veges are high in it.

Wait a second, what? Last I checked this shit was cheaper than real food, and that was part of the appeal. You could get a month of food for $30 using Soylent.

>>10533083
How many do you get per day? I'm assuming 5?

>>10533505
>20%
Gee, I wonder

>>10533495
Honestly this. What is the appeal of appeal if it isn't radically cheaper than regular food?

450 a month that's more than i make.

>>10533213
No, it taste like cheap pancake batter.

>>10533527
you could go full organic vagan with 200-300$ if you wanted.

>>10533438
they're all balding low-test skinnyfats, which is way more nu-male and embarassing than doing a stupid face
also I'm nowhere near leftist, you don't have to be a leftie to laugh at braindead /pol/cucks

>>10533481
Where the fuck are you going that is $3

>>10533083
Tastes like shit and illegal in Canada.

>>10533648
A dinner in town near the city.

>>10533612
>balding
>low-test
You obviously don't know how balding works...

>>10533612
>also I'm nowhere near leftist,
Sure, I believe you. Thank you for deleting your failure of a maymay image though.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy protein shake powder and one of those 'one a day' multivitamins?

>>10534186
Yes not that's not nutritionally equivalent.

>>10533524
The appeal is health/convenience. That's it.

>>10534274

>>10533083
Buying the bottles is for true suckers. The powder is vastly cheaper.

The powder is $60 for 35 meals. That'd cover you a week. A person living alone can shop for 7 days at a much lower cost than $60 if they know what they're doing, but it's roughly equivalent to the cost of an average American diet.

I'd probably add on another $10-15 bucks for accessories to spice it up. Cocoa powder, PBfit, fruit, stuff like that.

>>10534423
>35 meals
>a week

Sup fatass

12pk is $25 @ amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01EUEIL3E

So how many of these is a day's nutrition?

>>10534601
1 bottle is 1/5 of daily nutrition

>>10534601
>says in big black lettering 20% daily nutrition o the bottle in your image
>"how many of these is a day's nutrition?"

>>10534423
>Five meals a day

>>10533182
>3 meals a day
Is something wrong with me? After one big meal I'm fine for like 30 hours.

>>10534629
>>10534544

You make 5 servings with 400 kilocalories. If you're surviving only on soymush, it makes you feel more satisfied.

Why the heck would you buys this trash instead of super mass gainer

>>10534706
>super mass gainer
That sounds alarmingly masculine.

>>10534706
pretty sure the people who drink soy are going the other way.

>>10533444
>HURRRRR ME NO GAY ME HAVE NO ESTROGEN

>>10533213
This is the worst aspect of this stupid retarded bullshit, it tastes like fucking cancer/asparatame with a light touch of playdoh, pancake batter, and soymilk. It's disgusting.

>>10534243
>health

It isn't healthy though, as much as the idea of making a one size fits all cure for nutritional needs it just frankly isn't possible to meet everyone's dietary needs and liquid diets are on record as unhealthy to begin with. As a breakfast replacement I suppose it's fine but these people trying to replace eating with it make me cry for humanity. Just how stupid can you be

>>10534695
You've grown used to the feeling of being malnourished

>>10533537
but why

>>10534274
Bwahahaha its like nature is taking its course.

>>10533444
>retard doesn't know his own testes use estrogen to create testosterone

>>10534243
>/convenience.
force feeding 5 flavorless smoothies a day doesn't sound very convenient, or pleasant. Even one is pushing it

The joy of eating food is tasting different textures and elements.
If you only eat goop you might as well put a cattle ring on your nose and go to farm.

>>10533213
I tried it once and it just tasted like the left-over milk after you have some plain Cheerios

>>10534274
>HIV positive
>bottle looks like dick skin

Hahaha

>>10533444
>Phytoestrogens are now the same as strogen
they have a similar composition, but they dont share the same effects at all, if anything, meat and milk have a higher chance to reduce your test levels when compared to soy

>>10533083
The powder is significantly cheaper. Only retards buy the bottles.

>>10533083
5 kilos of protein and a bunch of vitamins and a jar of coconut oil would cost you about 60 dollars a month a be tastier and more nutritious than this shit. It's just meme food marketed to braindead faggots and fat housewives.

>>10533182
I'm not a buger but aren't your mcdoubles a dollar each. At 450 kcal, 27g of protein, 27g of fat, 5 of those would feed a small/average man and most Americans are manlets so it would be enough for the average American

>>10537231
Nah, that's over. They're $1.50 at most now.
>regular inflation is 2%
>mcdouble inflation is 50%
how's a poor brother supposed to eat?

>>10536878
Drinking premade liquid is far more convenient than cooking and eating food. You're retarded aren't you?

>>10533213
Just buy a bag of whey protein,even unflavoured tastes better, olive oil/coconut oil, fruit and some spinach, maybe a few vitamins, milk and greek yoghurt. Fuck it in a blender, done.

>>10536890
>the joy of eating food
Food is there to keep you alive. It's not a faggot amusement park fairy ride.

Hey, not my money. The jews behind soylent must be rolling in cash.

>>10537257
The powder comes to about $300 per month.

>>10534544
It's designed to be eaten at that frequency. 400 kcal per serving

>>10535856
These niggers are going to end up jawlets with atrophied intestines and perpetual diarhea, even if the shakes were magically nutritionally complete.

>>10535856
No one has demonstrated it to be unhealthy yet. People live on it for years and their blood workups are fine.

>>10537239
You still have it good for that cheap niggermode dirty bulking though. Double cheeseburgers are 2 euro here. I bet Morgan Spurlock did this.

>>10533213
It tastes like Cheerios in almond milk desu. Not too bad, though I've only had it a few times. Not sure if I'd wanna live off the stuff.

>>10537248

>>10534604

If you are a faggot that doesn't move all day sitting behind your cartoons fapping to ponies.

I'm having my wisdom teeth removed soon and I've been thinking about trying this just for a few days. Is this a good idea or should I just make soups and mashed potatoes and shit instead?

>>10537508

This is correct, assuming you aren't living in poverty.

>>10537274
I'm gonna bet it'll fade away as a fad before there's any conclusive evidence about how easy it is to subsist on it for years on end. I'd like to believe even the most die-hard soylentbois would actually switch back to eating actual food before then as well. But be my guests

>>10537717
This is the same logic legit cuckolds use to justify other people railing their wives

>>10537784
Nothing he said warranted that response though. Cooking and eating food is pleasurable, it's not about revolving your life around it to make yourself feel "fun" like you were trying to make it out like, it's just a fact. You're missing fundamental aspects of life if you don't understand that. I'm a bodybuilder but I refuse to allow myself to become a joyless faggot because subsisting on random bland mush with protein powder and creatine "just werks" or whatever.

>>10537784
Unironically kys

>>10537839
No, that isn't correct.

>>10537840

>I'm a bodybuilder but I refuse to allow myself to become a joyless faggot because subsisting on random bland mush with protein powder and creatine "just werks" or whatever.

>the baby needs food to be fun to avoid becoming a joyless faggot
Why do Americans place so much of their self-worth on food?

>>10537854
He/(you) literally said that you unimaginable faggot
>>10537861
Try the entire history of humanity sitting around campfires on earth

>>10537861

>>10537867
>He/(you) literally said that you unimaginable faggot
Where? Is this American reading comprehension?
>Try the entire history of humanity sitting around campfires on earth
Hunter gatherers ate whatever the fuck they could metabolize. Picky eating is a modern invention, dipshit.

fucking here you goddamn retard >>10537369
>>the baby thinks he's superior for being so weak he needs food to be fun.

>>10537895
Yep, so you can't read. You even read it twice and failed to read it properly the second time. Amazing.

>>10537884

>>10537895

>>10537899
Are you retarded?

>>10537899
The crux of your point is that the "baby" needs to feel "fun

the whole point is that YOU think that is what is being argued about but it isn't, however, YOU keep bringing that up, because you're retarded.

>>10537905
What kind of mental gymnastics do you need to perform to turn this:
>the baby thinks he's superior for being so weak he needs food to be fun
into this:
>it's not about revolving your life around it to make yourself feel "fun" like you were trying to make it out like
?

Where does the first statement mention anything at all about revolving your life around anything? Where does the first statement mention anything at all about "making yourself feel fun"?

Imagine drinking goylent and coping this hard on this very own thread
Imagine being gypped because you can't afford some time of filling up your butt with dildos to cook

>>10537916
Ah I see, you're both retarded and autistic, got it. This is pointless.

>>10537928
>you're both retarded and autistic
No, that's not correct. You sure are American, though.

>>10537936
>No, that's not correct.

Probably the most retarded and autistic response you could have come up with to that

>>10537941
If you say so.

A third are obese and a third are overweight. So he's wrong, but you are too.

Aka being a faggot as usual.

>>10538766
>Are you a jawlet
No. I eat a solid diet because soylent is a waste of money.
>a picky eater
I'm the opposite of a picky eater. I'm mocking people who require food to taste a certain way instead of just eating to feel good.
>a sad life
Nah, I don't define my sense of pleasure and fulfillment in life through what I stuff my face with. I feel great, and that's more important to me than having my mouth explode with faggy flavors.
>>10538769
No, that isn't correct.

>>10538778
>I'm mocking people who require food to taste a certain way instead of just eating to feel good.
And what is the basis of this? He's comparing food in general against soylent, not a 'specific food'.
>having my mouth explode with faggy flavors.
>faggy flavors
I don't know what you eat but you seems to be a complete hypocritical faggot who eat anything to 'fill up' your stomach.

>>10538778
>soylent is a waste of money
Yet you're defending it. These are soyfags arguments.

>>10538871
>>10536890
>The joy of eating food is tasting different textures and elements.
He implies here that that food needs to be an amusement park ride for faggots and that anything else makes you cattle.

Surely you understand how retarded and juvenile that mindset is.

>>10533083
Why would you ever get this shit when you can get something like a Naked or Bolthouse Farms smoothie with better nutrition and a more agreeable price tag that actually fucking tastes good?

Oh right because Silicone Valley.

>>10538894
>He implies here that that food needs to be an amusement park ride for faggots
Tasty food with different textures, what's wrong with that?
>anything else makes you a cattle
No, he's talking about soylent, hence he uses the word 'goop', not 'anything else'. Is this hard for you to understand, or you're just projecting?

>>10538778
>faggy flavors

>>10537254

No, that isn't the case.

>>10540362
Alright but I want you to know how strange it would be to actually talk person to person with somebody who called people "weak" "faggot" "babies" for enjoying the objective pleasure of eating while also being active in ways beyond sitting at a desk shitposting and playing video games all day. It's fascinating, honestly.

>>10540379
It's simple, really. I don't interact with people in my real life who would call someone else "cattle" for not enjoying food.
>the objective pleasure
>objective
No, that's not how it works.

>>10540387
kek whatever you say, but yes it is literally objective unless you have an eating or mental disorder. I'm sure the other anon was calling people who don't enjoy cooking/eating "cattle" because they have to rely on some awful corporate concotion of soy and algae in order to actually live

>>10540387
>>10540396
But where the real problem with me personally is people who "don't enjoy eating" who don't have a treatable eating disorder are generally just picky eaters with a child's mentality, especially if they lash out at others about it. But at the end of the day who cares

>>10540396
>yes it is literally objective
No, that isn't correct.
>But where the real problem with me personally is people who "don't enjoy eating" who don't have a treatable eating disorder are generally just picky eaters with a child's mentality
No, this isn't correct. I can and do eat food, and I don't dislike the tastes or textures. I just find it incredibly boring and time consuming and would rather spend that time doing something I enjoy more.

>>10540430
I've always viewed food as part of life, an integrated thing, ever since we were hunter-gatherers, so the idea that food is "boring" is something incomprehensible to me. It's time-consuming to cook, but it is necessary(unless you have the wealth to have others do it for you) for proper nutrition. I also feel this attempt at making food this supermarket/fast food commodity product is separating us from the planet we're on.

>>10540458
Separating us in a way that is destroying us, like a cancer, and soylent is a part of it, but so are so many other things that I am also guilty of desu

>>10540458
Diarrhea and puking are a part of life too, that doesn't mean it's something that needs to be enjoyed. Plenty of normal bodily functions fucking suck.

>>10540464
Do you equate eating with puking?

>>10540471
No, but I think you missed my point. You're saying that because food is "part of life" that it is necessarily something to be enjoyed, when there is absolutely nothing mandating that notion whatsoever.

You sound like people who say "weed isn't a drug, it's a natural plant, so it's okay".

>>10540480
Do you have taste buds? What do you think tongues are for? Weed is totally okay, but not because it is natural, that also isn't the point I'm making, there are plenty of natural things that kill you. You're a dense motherfucker

>>10540505
>Do you have taste buds?
Yes.
>What do you think tongues are for?
I use it for speaking, mainly.

>>10540512

>>10540480
No one is saying it needs to be enjoyed. It CAN be enjoyed. If you don't enjoy eating, that's your childish manner. enjoying living means enjoying things you do. If you don't then you can kill yourself.

My guess is that it doesn't have anything to do with so-called "gullet stuffing". People simply reject this industrial slime for what it is: unfit for human consumption. I'd rather eat fast food than this trash, and that's saying something.

Even if it were 100% magically perfect nutrition it's fucking inedble because it's the same boring bland shit over and over again. The lack of variety and texture alone makes it inedible.

MREs are also extremely heavy. The "entree" usually involves a watery sauce of some kind. And they contain a rediculous amount of packaging (I once worked on a research project which studied the durability of the materials used to make the pouches containing the food in MREs)

>>10553491

>>10533083
>Eat at Micky D's
>Not buying your own ground meat, toppings, and buns
Even at $4/5 a pound for ground meat and $2 for an 8 pack of buns you're getting a nice juicy quarter pound burger for less than what Micky D's will offer for a flimsy as shit edible cardboard patty.

But I agree $15 for a single cup of 'meal' coffee is insane. Especially when you can pay about $2/3 for a single cup protein/meal drink.

>>10553607
>MREs are more convenient than Soylent
Utter crap. MREs are filled with tons of little packets that are a hassle to open, and have a lot of packaging to throw away afterward.

>>specifically why
Lol, sure is virgins discussing sex in here.
The reasons why soylent isn't used are many.
1) they don't meet the military's requirements for caloric density or nutrition Belive it or not theres a massive amount of effort which goes into the nutrition of MREs.
2) It's boring as fuck. Bad for morale. Surprisingly, the gov spends a lot of money trying to make MREs mimic the kinds of dishes people are used to eating at home...not only for morale, but also because a solider who doesn't eat all his food isnt getting enough nutrition to perform at his best.
3)MREs have extremely stringent requirements for the durability of the product and packaging in all kinds of temperature extremes, bug resistance, rough handling, etc. I doubt a case of soylent could survive being dropped from the back of a helicopter in -30 weather, or survive storage in a 120F desert warehouse for years....

>>10553635
>MREs are filled with tons of little packets that are a hassle to open, and have a lot of packaging to throw away afterward.
Your metric for convenience is fucking retarded. MREs are considerably lighter than Soylent, that's what the convenience is.
>they don't meet the military's requirements for caloric density
This is correct, MREs need to condense more calories into a smaller volume.
>or nutrition
What nutritional requirements are those?
>It's boring as fuck.
So you've never eaten an MRE and have no idea how fucking bland and disgusting they are. At least Soylent tastes relatively inoffensive. This reason is god damn retarded and obviously not the case lmao.
>MREs have extremely stringent requirements for the durability of the product and packaging in all kinds of temperature extremes, bug resistance, rough handling, etc. I doubt a case of soylent could survive being dropped from the back of a helicopter in -30 weather, or survive storage in a 120F desert warehouse for years.
Yes, this is true. This also has nothing to do with health, like the original retard claimed.

>>10533612
>tfw to smart to be political

>>10553691
>Your metric for convenience is fucking retarded
It might be. But its not my metric, it's that of the government. There is a huge push right now to reduce the complexity and amount of packaging inside an MRE. It's very expensive to ship, not only because of the weight but also the volume. And often times that garbage has to be shipped back out of a conflict zone too.

>>MREs considerably lighter
Yes, that's a valid point.

>>What nutritonal requirements are those
I can't quote you the exact legal wording, but I assure you it's there. As I mentioned in an earlier post I used to work on a study regarding the durability of the packaging used in MREs and I ha sat through an awful lot of boring meetings on the various details of MREs. Every aspect of them is engineered to an insane degree, and nutrition is one of those factors. They even go to great lengths to overlap the nutritional content between the individual items in an MRE, that way if a soldier doesn't like one of the items and does't eat it they get some of the same micros/macros from other items in the same MRE. The bean counters figured out that its worth the money to make sure the MREs are adequalty nutritious otherwise the soliders can't perform as well.

>>bland and disgusting
I hear you bro. But soylent is even worse. What's funny is that they do surveys and studies about this and the soliders often request more egg-based MREs. The problem is that shelf-stable eggs are hard as fuck to create. They either don't last or they taste like ass due to the sulfur in the eggs. They've been banging their heads against this problem for decades, and spent millions of taxpayer $$$ on it too. It's been a few years since I was last involved with any of the research, but at that time the best they could do was implement a computer system that restricted the issuing of egg-base MREs unless they were very new (those tasted ok) or very old (those tasted of nothing).

>>10553724
>I hear you bro. But soylent is even worse.
Not at all. I'd rather drink Soylent than have to force another MRE into me.

>>10553732
You're in the minority.

Whats funny is that during the course of my work on the program I got to talk to an awful lot of soliders involved in the testing, and a huge chunk of them would swear up and down that MREs contained laxatives so you woudn't shit yourself in combat. Another equally huge chunk of them would insist the opposite: that they contained some kind of "anti laxative" designed to stop you up. Neither claim was true but they were very strongly felt beliefs.

What's your vote for the worst MRE? I heard that the frankfurters were especially bad and were often referred to as "the four fingers of death". Alas, that was discontinued from the menu before my work. My vote goes to the maple-flavored sausage patty. I get what they were going for, but fuck I hate that artificial maple taste.

>I gave it a taste, it tastes just like a protein shake.
This. The people saying it doesn't taste good must be broken or retarded somehow.

>>10553779
I doubt the problem would be the taste of it. Rather it would be the monotany of having the same thing over and over.

Right now the US MREs have a total of 24 different menus. They're issued in "cases", of which there are 12 different menus in Case A and another 12 in Case B. They go to great lengths to provide variety and at least in the past there was talk of adding even more. Having a couple different flavors of the same "drink your food" would not go over well. "More variety" is a common survey request now even with 24 different menus.

Humans can only test and measure a few health metrics through bloodwork. With real food there are thousands of micronutrients involved, many of which we don't know shit about. The blood tests don't measure those. They measure a handful of metrics, which is easy enough to add in supplements to handle those specific specs for manufacturers. They ignore all the rest, and we have no way to measure all the rest. Conveniently your "blood tests" won't show this huge blind spot. Human nutrition is more complex than a handful of vitamins and some protein and fiber content.

Okay, so if you can't measure these other imaginary areas of nutrition with any known metric, on what basis do you claim that soylent doesn't meet them? You do understand that you need to demonstrate that it is unhealthy, right? You can't just feel like it is and pretend that's good enough.
