The future of food, part four: a week of Soylent

I’ve gone over three alternatives, sampled them, mixed them with other stuff to make them more “edible,” and now comes a quick test of a short-term result.

This week, I’m going to “eat” nothing but Soylent for lunch and dinner. I tend to skip breakfast on weekdays. I’ll still have my daily coffee and water at night to take my medications but nothing solid. Allegedly each bottle says it covers 20% of one’s daily intake at 400 calories.

By midnight next Sunday, let’s see how I’m feeling. The Moontower Comedy Festival will be winding down which will be perfect. I can celebrate by bringing home a deep-dish pizza from Geno’s East on Sixth.

Currently, I’ve had my first bottle as bruch…ugh. After working out at the gym, there’s nothing better than Soylent’s chalky taste.
