I thought they called it Soylent as kind of a joke. I’m sure they’re already fully aware of what Soylent Green is lol
Yes that is where the name stems from.
Been waiting a while for this lol
It was soy and lentil in the book.
The movie based on the book made it people.
This joke was old in 2013.
As I recall, the joke was getting old in the late 90s on slashdot
Yes but I’m talking about when the actual Soylent beverage was invented and named by Rob Reinhardt. 2013.
I’m pretty sure they didn’t have Soylent Green in 2013. Just Soylent.
The green bottles came out around 2018. I was there for it. I bought them and I drank them and they were delicious. The book Soylent Green and the movie Soylent Green were 1960s 1970s. The creator of the nutritional beverage Rob Reinhardt has a dark wry sarcastic sense of humor and he named his new creation Soylent on purpose because of his sense of humor, before he had any idea his invention would take off on an international level of popularity. His invention first became publicly available around 2013. He has made motions and attempts to rename the brand but it has become so popular, name and product, that he & Rosa Foods are leaving the name alone for now.
that’s where you’re wrong, kiddo.
oh, 2013? maybe not then. but they did at one point
People, amirite?
Delicious, delicious people.
Not really, that stuff tastes like shit
Only if you eat the colon.
Or the rich
Whoa they still exist? I remember getting a bunch some long ass time ago and it was decent but pretty expensive. I don’t think they had flavours like this though.
I got some from vybey about a year ago. They sent out promo codes because of slow shipping, and I stacked that with a sale discount and free shipping to get about 500 powder meals for 35% off. I only eat them after gym sessions or while hiking so they gonna last me a long time.
They knew
Soylent; encouraging cannibalism without advertising it
4.39?!? Fuck that’s so much. Granted I used to drink the powder mix so I’m used to those prices
I used to live on those when they cost a little over $1 per bottle. The price inflation now is outrageous. Anyway I stopped drinking Soylent mid-2021 soon after they switched their sweetener to allulose. My body did not like allulose. I drink Jimmy Joy Plenny Shake now, and eat MealSquares.
I’ll take Posts Where the OP Missed The Joke for 100, Alex
