I am awaiting my shipment. I plan to replace lunch with it. I'll make a post.

I don't see it as anti-food. For me, it promises a little bit of freedom. My lunch is either a bit boring (oatmeal and fruit from home), or a bit expensive (a sandwich from the organic bakery in my workplace). Soylent is a reasonably healthy, low cost, lunch alternative.

Tim Ferriss has a pretty interesting review of it:

That article really makes me want to get a Basis band, seems like a cool piece of wearable tech that can tell you a lot.

Did you do this?

minimum_wage, have you ever tried it?

Just found out about this somehow and I'm trying to catch up.

I'm still waiting on my shipment. They are sending them in reverse order, and I placed mine pretty recently. I'll post about it.

I haven't tried it. It's currently a little too expensive. And one of my roommates gets a bunch of Ensure from the state for free so we are pretty much swimming in meal replacement fluids already.
