I read that Soylent gives you putrescent, gas-mask wearing, noxious gaseous emissions that make beer & boiled egg farts smell like Chanel #5.
The writer strongly advised that you remain far away from people you care about after eating this stuff.
No thank you.

Why would anyone want to market a product named for the sustenance food of a dystopian movie? You may as well try selling 'Victory Gin' or 'chocorat' (from 1984)

There is a popular prescription medicine called Soma, after a drug in Brave New World.
