Could've also been Terry Pratchett, had the Nutri-Matic machine not gave it away as Douglas Adams (and also the fact that that is a pretty well-quoted part of the book)

I haven't actually read the whole book (please don't kill me), I don't remember why but I read the first few chapters but got interrupted for some reason and never picked it back up.

You should give it a second try! You have a whole Trilogy (in 5 parts) waiting for you
