One of the editors at Ars reviewed Soylent 1.0 back in 2013 (synopsis: lots of green poo.)

The founder is a real off-the-grid kinda guy, despite all the TECH that would have to go into making Soylent. Irony, that. http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2015/08/op-ed-how-i-gave-up-alternating-current/

The inventor is a nutter. I love this quote from him:

"I utilize soylent only at home and go out to eat when craving company or flavor."

'nuff said.

I will swear this stuff was mentioned around when the ARS article came out but I can't find it.
