But this is what I don't get. We literally already have this. Some cancer patients live on a liquid diet for YEARS already. We have complete liquid nutrition. It's a solved problem.
Now, the application can be debated, but soylent doesn't seem to bring anything new to the table.
It feels like this is just old solution with new marketing.
I'm curious -- are these formulae available for purchase by anyone? I do think that Soylent's research is somewhat redundant (although more research is never a bad thing especially with tricky business like nutrition), but is there another product that's come out of this cancer patient diet that I could buy?
Well, I dunno. I cannot say you're wrong. I'm just interested in stuff like this as long as their are large groups of starving people in the world. Maybe my interests are misdirected and I should be wondering why current solutions aren't being applied.
