      I mentioned Soylent a while back and someone commented that it was slop. I guess people just aren’t into that.

        It’s already supposed to be a balanced diet with fiber and protein, wouldn’t bread throw off the balance?

        Do you think a burger with fries and a sugary soda would be better?

        Actual fresh vegetables, eggs, and brown rice would be healthier of course.

          A burger with fries and coke is not “average diet”, not even in the US, lots of research on that

          Yea comparing a meal that was designed to be fast and nutritious to a meal that’s designed purely on how much money it makes with the most addictive and tasty ingredients isn’t very equal XD

            I genuinely have no idea which is which in your post. Any mass produced processed food is made to be addicting first and foremost.

                “fast and nutritious” definitely sounds like the 2 things our brains are looking for in a food source. Mixed with a pepsi i would say you might as well just have boxed pancakes and syrup

                  “Sounds” doesn’t make it real. There are components in foods that are proven to have addictive properties like sugar, fat or salt where the foods can be void of nutrients but contain lots of them and the brain will crave that food again. Dairy also is designed in nature to get babies addicted to it so that they crave it and want to eat more and have plenty of nutrients to grow and have better babies survival rate wich is great.
