The changing climate with extreme weather events, droughts, floods and increased insect pest populations will be a challenge for agriculture and food production. A Silicon Valley engineer developed a super-food powdered meal replacement with 35 essential ingredients including protein, carbs, fats, vitamins and minerals all in a 1500-calorie pouch. Some users have reported Soylent tastes like unsweetened cake, that’s UNSWEETENED cake, and lets you cruise through the day feeling fine. It can be made cheaply in bulk at about a dollar a pouch. It might have all the nutrition we need, but then again maybe not.
Maybe one day soon we’ll all be closing our eyes, sucking up Soylent slop and remembering the last great dinner party.
