So Soylent has released a new product called Soylent squared. They are soy based 100 calorie meal replacement bars. Each bar is $1. Was thinking about buying them. Anyone try these bad boys out?

nah its an hour total usually a 15 min break 30 min lunch then another 15 min break unpaid. i always hated the jobs i worked like that dunno if its legally required though because 2/3 of the jobs ive had dont have any set breaks you just take a few minutes whenever you have time.

I got a pack of ten sent to me for "review" and they're not particularly good. The regular flavor tastes a bit like sweetened pancake batter without the vanilla, the consistency is just thick enough to not really be chuggable meaning you have to slowly drink this slop throughout a half hour/hour defeating the entire purpose of it being a meal replacement since you have to lug it around with you.
These bars I assume are meant to be the counter to that, less difficult to carry around, but you still have to carry them around with you. It's not replacing meals, it's replacing other snacks i'd bring with me. If I get the bars i'll try them but no way in hell would I ever spend my own money on it.

It's not. Nearly $3.50 per bottle, and considering you need like 5 or 6 bottles to get a full day's nutrients you're spending nearly $20 a day just to not be starving. These bars are even worse they're literally just candy bars.

So, 1 dollar - 100 kcal

I thought it was marketed as a food replacement for people who wanted a quick meal/not eat out at work desu. 3.50 is a lot for what it is, but I suppose it's cheaper than whatever my coworkers are spending on panera/chipotle etc...like every god damn day.

It's not a meal replacement unless you drink two of them, they're not filling at all even then, anyway.

Not true. Stop acting pathetic and having a little pissing contest about how hard your life is. Nothing about 100 calories is going to "replace" your lunch.

If you only get a fifteen minute break then you aren't working long enough to need a lunch.
