Mark Dain Apparently Joylent ( joylent.eu ) is a thing for us Europeans. Have you seen this?
Martijn Joylent was brought to my attention on Facebook before. I have now translated the answer I gave there into English for public posting: notes.pinboard.in/...

Mark Dain I think some of the immaturity has since gone away as the company has grown but I can understand people avoiding them for the lack of professionalism. I did notice that in some of their early videos. People on /r/Soylent seem to vouch for them so I took a gamble and bought some. I'll make a vlog when it arrives. It would be really nice to have Soylent/similar in Europe.

Martijn If they can get their nutrition worked out, and get regulators to actually test and evaluate their product, then I am in. But I would like to go 100% Soylent if I am to make the switch, and switching to something untested is not an option for me. I don't feel like being a guinea pig that way. I found another one in Finland, Ambronite, and they "strongly discourage anybody to eat only Ambronite for a prolonged period of time". Soylent is well tested and approved, hard to beat.

Mark Dain I believe it's also approved, this thread has some information you can make judgements from: reddit.com/r/soyle...

Martijn Interesting! I don't use Reddit, at all, so I miss things like this. I do agree with some other replies there that Joylent's "goofy" style of marketing makes it hard for the website to inform potential buyers like me. I might see if I can dig up something from the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority.
