🦿 Lucian Marin You have to boil Soylent if you don't want to get sick. Germs get destroyed then. I doubt it's an ingredient problem, more like germs problem. Also, mixing it with milk can make it more consistent than mixing the powder with water. I will never consume it myself. I prefer to make my own blends in the winter season: hot milk, bananas, cocoa based powder, etc. If I replace milk with soy milk I basically get my own version of Soylent.
Martijn Soylent is GMP certified so I would not expect to find any germs in there that you wouldn't also fin in your "cocoa based powder". Not that I am eating it either at their current price. When they first came out and said they would be getting cheaper (&c.&c.) I was very interested. Now they are still at almost $10/day for a Soylent diet. I definitely do not spend $10/day on my usual shopping.

Martijn Joylent never seemed "serious" to me. Huel does look good. Would you recommend them?

Mark Dain Definately. Huel does feel quite professional and tastes very nice too. I've been eating it for a few weeks and I did go back to order another 2 bags. The instruction booklet included also has cooking tips, like using the Huel powder for making cakes; as it's flavoring is a separate powder you can have whatever flavor you want. Toffee tastes very nice!

Martijn I might give it a try. I still think it is too expensive to go full-on Huel. Cheaper than Soylent, but still expensive. PS1.61/meal doesn't sound bad, but at 4 meals a day (by their calculation) the PS45.00 basic order will only feed me for a single week.
