>Some people really seem to like it
some people like mayo too but that doesn't mean it's not poison.

>>14085341
If you are a biological male and want to stay one stay away from Soy. Decreases testosterone, increases Estrogen. Tastes bad too.

>>14085341
You get nice tits.

>>14085373
There is healthy mayo now made with avocado oil or coconut oil.

Why does this man need a device to open the soylent when it contains so much protein??

>>14085413
neither of those fruits are healthy.

It must be good stuff

Some of the appeal is that it's ready to consume and a lot of its target audience are depressed with low motivation.

>>14085471
Sounds like it's ideal for 4channel users!

>>14085341
more like 'goylent', amirite

>>14085341

>gee, it's another I'm not a shill for some crap made in a dirty warehouse by a failed venture capitalist turned snake oil salesman

>>14085379
Got any proof for this claim? The only source I ever get it sweaty /pol/ppets crying about it.

>>14085341
You will have feminine benis.

>>14085658
Check out the soylent founder's gyno.

>>14085658
>You cannot change your gender
>This drink literally turns you into a woman LMAO

Pick only one /pol/fag

>>14085341
I just tried it recently, surprisingly good. People say it's too chalky but I didnt notice that at all. I downed a whole bottle in like 10 seconds, it's not something you need to sip at to get down.

>>14085865
To add on, my only complaint is that it takes two bottles to actually make you feel any effect, so for a "cheap" meal replacement it doesn't really work

why the fuck is everyone so retarded

>>14085835
Anecdotes are not sources
He could have been a juicer before he started drinking it

>>14085341
>benefits
meal replacement that requires no thought and provides adequate nutrition for not a whole lot of money
>drawbacks
doesn't taste great
hard to open bottle

>>14085884
He didn't have the gyno earlier in the company's history. And he's not built like he uses steroids.

His bitch tits are from drinking his own kool-aid (soylent).

>>14085835
Bob has bitch tits.

>>14085835
Holy shit l0l

>>14085414
Still slips

>>14085919
It's probably not from the soylent, but the shitty plastic they put it in
Xenoestrogens from plastic have been well characterized as endocrine disruptors, phytoestrogens not so much
Also, there is hormone pollution in drinking water from birth control pills
And don't bother linking an article unless its from a journal with an impact factor > 4 and a review

>>14086211
Also Soylent was found to contain toxic levels of cadmium and other heavy metals. It's basically poisonous.

>>14085379
This has been debunked since

>>14086328
this english major is certainly no expert on endocrinology. that being said, its does seem unlikely that soy has an especially pronounced detrimental effect, see: the entire history of the continent of asia. this is interesting because there are definitely measurable and apparently bio-available phytoestrogens in soy. they even recommend avoiding soy if you have been diagnosed with estrogen dependent cancers. apparently no one knows how any of this works.
anyway, soylent is dumb because of a plethora of entirely non-endocrine related reasons.

>>14085414
He's retarded, look how the deformed finger grips the bottom of the bottle.

>>14085341
seriously though, why do people drink this? interested in honest non-meme answers

>>14085341
It's just a meal replacer, dude. I have one for lunch when I have to be at uni all fucking day occasionally

>>14085341
Memes aside, I had one for the first time today and it was fucking awful. Not sure why anyone would drink those on the daily

>>14085911
>for not a whole lot of money
What? It seems really expensive for what it gives in terms of nutricion and energy to me.

>>14085414
he couldve at least made it faster. fuck that thing takes ages.

>Lelelelelel guys my made up hypothetical soyboy friend talks about memedrink! Let's do a 4channel.ork/ck thred about it for the lulululz!

>>14087600
Had one of my roommates bring back assorted flavors from a work function that Soylent had also attended earlier this year. They were god awful (gritty texture, shitty synthetic flavors that left terrible after tastes in your mouth reminiscent on medicine).

>Not sure why anyone would drink those on the daily
It's not hard to separate a fool from his money.

>>14087600
Because they're faggot ass bugmen consoomers. Example: the soy face cucks in your picture. These are the people who will eat bugs when Buzzfeed tells them to.

>>14087600
>plant based
>those facial expressions

It is not acquired to be a scientist to conclude there must be SOI in that chicken!!!!

If soylent gives you bitchtits then why did I benchpress 140lbs lately you weak faggots

>>14085341
/x/-tier pseudoscience aside, it's just not that good. the taste is notoriously "okay" at best and even though it might have enough calories to keep you from starving it's just not the same as actually having a meal. it's really only worth it if you're in a hurry but even then there's better snacks you could get for the same price
>>14087633
there is literally nothing wrong with eating bugs though? they're cheap, good for you, can be cooked in all sorts of way and are a renewable source of food. the only reason why you wouldn't want to eat bugs is because you're a) a contrarian or b) a pussy

>>14085835
Proof enough for me

>>14085341
Here's the true redpill and a balanced opinion.

First off, I have no problem with soy as a different food product. 99% of the retards above simply decide to make "it" something so they have something to bully and feel that by being against it "they" are better. Its typical collectivist monkey like behaviour and largely stemming from being losers and having no other source of self-respect.

Now, this is the point where you may think I will come for it, but, uh no. Although I too am a "techie". Athough I too like the idea of a futuristic "omnifood", I simply dont think we understand nutrition enough yet to make one.

I think that there are mechanical effects in foods we still barely understand, beyond just "carbs" and "sugars". Such as anti-inflammatories, epigenetics etc.

Things like garlic, blueberries, curcumin etc have all sorts of other effects beyond "calories" and which would take too long to explain.

As a true food geek then, and completely free of any mental chains about soiboys etc, I give it a thumbs down. You want to eat good, I suggest looking into the Mediterranean and Japanese diet.

>>14085341
This thing right here is a hardcore soy eater.

I wouldn't phrase it as 'mechanical effects', but I agree with this entirely. In order for us to prepare a complete food substitute, we need to understand nutrition completely. Given the state of modern medicine, do you think we have this level of knowledge?

In the meantime, I'm going to eat what our bodies have spent their evolution adapting to: plenty of plants, a reasonable amount of meat, and some carbs to pad out the calories.

>>14089438
A doctor in what? Chiropractory? What a completely worthless meaningless post.

>>14089237
>/x/-tier pseudoscience
Always do the opposite of what Chinese PubMed articles say.

>>14089453
Emergency medicine. Do you think we know everything there is to be known about nutrition?

>>14089394
Why does it cry

>>14085469
Poor Jesse. This was back when Soylent was still new and he was geeking out about the old 'Soylent Green is made of people!' line. He's still a Youtuber and Commiefornia native, but this time it was mostly about the old movie.

can someone post the coffee picture guy?

>>14089493
You'd cry if you were that repulsive, ghoulish thing.

>>14089394
i'll never forgive cosmo for running on the ique. talk about excluding 99% of the competition.

>>14085414
>the grip

I gained weight on the powder, that's about it

>>14085414
Because the kind of people who consoom Soylent are so weak from their lack of sustenance that they cannot even open the bottles. This is rather ironic.

>>14085414
>that grip

>>14085414
How can these people wake up, look at their bones, and think they're doing it right?

>>14090753
>>14090853
He clearly has a deformity.

>>14085341
soylent carbs is maltodextrin which is fucking unhealthy.
try ample instead, it's a keto thing, more expensive but way healthier (no maltodextrin)

i have so much of this shit from the local food bank i hadnt even finished the last batch i got from them.

>>14089394
wow, a lot to unpack here

Redpill me on mayo

he was so proud of his any% ocarina of time
world record that he got by running on a system almost nobody owned that was able to achieve the record by loading faster, what a fag

>>14089394
Lmao. Did he kill himself?

>>14085461
Why do people like this exist
