My Soylent 1.4 arrived in under six weeks.

Official Exp

I had my first meal of Soylent Saturday evening and I found it satisfying. Two thirds of my food on Sunday was also Soylent and today will be my first day of nothing but Soylent.

I'm trying to eat only Soylent, I want to feel what it's like to level out my metabolism as much as possible. I have a few meals scheduled with other people during the next week so those will still be regular food.

I'm exited about trying Soylent. I've been looking for a “bachelor chow” style of food for years, something to provide nutrition and calories with none of the bother. If my digestion handles this stuff, and so far I have no reason to believe it won't, then I might have just found my way to escape from food.

Tip: don't drink it too cold and don't drink it too fast.

I once gulped down a tall glass of ice cold Soylent, first thing in the morning; my stomach didn't respond well.

I put mine on ice, out of the fridge, and that seems to work for me

Bananas and strawberries helps improve the taste. I'm planning on trying to add some nutella next meal.

I like the taste! I might want variety after a while but right now I'm enjoying my meals. I also feel full after drinking it, I've moved to a smaller glass but I drink more often.

I usually just drink one cup whenever I get hungry. It comes out to about 4 meals a day. If I drink two cups in one sitting then I feel bloated.

I'd say that this is a great bachelorfood idea. Cooking for one is a pain (and wasteful), and you might not get all the nutrients you need. Good luck
