Soylent isn't a mixture of OTC vitamin mixtures. It's a custom blend. Ars Technica did a series on it:

That was the beta version, v1.0 actually addresses the chalky and such. I think it's an interesting concept.

v0.89 Ingredients

Maltodextrin (carbs)
Oat Powder (carbs, fiber, protein, fat) Rice Protein
Pea Protein
Grapeseed Oil (fat)
Potassium Gluconate
Salt (sodium)
Magnesium Gluconate
Monosodium Phosphate
Calcium Carbonate Methylsulfonylmethane (Sulfur) Creatine
Powdered Soy Lecithin
Choline Bitartrate
Ferrous Gluconate (Iron)
Vitamin mix

I'm sorry but I know I'm 100% right about this. Genuine multivitamins aren't even available in powder form or pill form. It's a liquid that can cost 10x more than the over the counter stuff. There's nothing cheap about it. A few mLs can cost up to $4 or $5. This is full of fillers that he doesn't even know about. Could be sand, tar, paper, all three are excepted fillers for cheap multivitamins. The sand probably explains the frothy problem.

I'd eat Soylent Green even knowing that it's made out of people.

A little protein in the diet never hurt anyone .....  :)

A picture is worth a thousand words. Post 102 is worth more.

I’m late to the party, but I think this is the best song. Enjoy!

IMO it's more useful for starving people than SiValley hipsters.

It may also be good for recycling your dead ..... LOL.  Where is Charleton Heston when we need him?  Damn dirty apes .....

 Shh! He's the secret ingredient. ;)

So, one would be better off eating Play Doh then? They keep saying not to, yet they make food themed playsets. Is it any wonder kids are confused?

Well, that's not appetizing so maybe a few may not fair well .... Michael Jackson comes to mind.  Maybe Keith Richards could hack it .... he's looking sort of fibrous these days .... LOL

A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 should be demoted to semi-canon status while ANOES 4, 5, 6, and Freddy vs. Jason should be decanonized altogether.

How about Freddy's Nightmares? ;)

I feel like there's a leech sucking on my YT account. Some "Big Think" channel added me to their Google + account circle thingy.... Blech.... Anyways, I was right. That Google + and YT mix combo thing did become mandatory for some people. I've seen random comments talking about how they had to press "ok" and connect with Google +. Blegh is what I have to say about this. Blegh, bleghity, bleghgeegee.

THIS SITUATION DOES NOT DESERVE THE DIGNITY OF REGULAR WORDS!!!!!!!!!!

I bid blegched to them.

I only watched the first episode -- it decanonizes itself.

Too bad, that the MySpleen invitation requesting guests are often not seen again, after getting an invite...

A bit weird how a lot of them bother to upload avatars. In some cases it might be that they intend to return, but never do, or want to deceive us into thinking they'll remain.

"Hey, guys! I'm new here. I look forward to all the fun times we'll have. My wife and I love Star Wars. We're gonna name our future son and daughter Luke and Leia! Oh, hey, does anyone have a MySpleen invite, by the way?"

( "Haha, suckers!" >:D )

I think the avatars are meant to make us think they intend to stick around.  Since I'm pretty sure the failure rate on that is 100%, at least in off-topic, they shouldn't bother.

Kristin Kreuk is cute. I'd give her a long hug. Perhaps a cuddle session by the hearth. But she's too fragile for much else.

 You'll end up damaging her perfect complexion regardless.
