>>Soylent Green is people!!!!!!!!!!!!!

According to the story, if you make it without people, it tastes bad and isn’t quite a total food substitute.

Only if you know it’s made out of people ...

At $5, a Little Caesar’s pepperoni pizza may provide a lot of caloric bang for the buck, but I almost always feel dirty after eating one.

[Argus]

I do NOT want to see what this guy’s poo looks like.

[nickcarraway]

Finally! Someone has developed a solution, so human beings no longer have to be punished with eating food!

[nickcarraway]

Yuck. So you would if he wasn’t on this diet?

[Popman]

-——Soylent resembles watered-down oatmeal. Unflavored, it tastes sour and wheaty, with a wan viscosity that gives off the impression of having already passed through someone else’s body.——

Wow....that is quite the endorsement....not....

I wonder what makes this different from meal replacement drinks....besides the fact the MR drinks can actually taste ok and not like something already eaten and passed thought any person bowels...

Only if you know it’s made out of people ...

Only the bees know...only the bees.

I don’t know if this is true, but my friend claimed he worked there, and they make a profit by using the topping of one pizza for two of theirs.

This jackass needs an apple and a turkey and swiss on pumpernickel sandwich.

Soylent is aggressively nourishing: It coated my tongue, charged down my throat, and engaged in pitched battle with the lasagna already occupying my stomach. Rhinehart’s ideological war on real food raged literally, nauseatingly in my gut, and Soylent lost this particular skirmish. I only managed a few gulps from a pint glass before dumping the rest down the drain.

Sounds like the ultimate 30 day nightmare diet

[Secret Agent Man]

if he adds bulk fiber powder it’d be normal.

[Lazamataz]

NEW Soylent PINK!

Now with 50% more girls!

[Secret Agent Man]

i see this in the future as to what the proles will eat. the upper ruling inner party will still eat and enjoy real food.

[nickcarraway]

If he wants to eat this stuff, I guess more for the rest of us. He probably also wants to knock down national parks for more server farms.

[null and void]

Avoid the New Soylent Lavender. Just trust me on this one.

[elcid1970]

Need “The Simpsons” box of Soylent Green, Now With More Girls!!

[Cowgirl of Justice]
