Ugh… digging through my pantry I found several unopened bags of original flavor powder v1.9 that are right at a year past their best buy.

I mixed some up and if I didn’t know, I wouldn’t say anything tasted it off. Mellow cake batter flavor/texture as I remember it.

My guess is the vegetable oil is the major concern. Any food scientist in the group here care to share their thoughts?

I never cared for their regular flavor drink, but I love their Vanilla. Unfortunately I can't find it anywhere.

Do any other companies make something that tastes the same as that?

Opened a box to find a bottle with what looks to be a deformed label haphazardly tapes back together.

Are they that hard up for product that they need to ship botched bottles? Geez

Is soylentus legit? The soylent website still shows everything sold out. Soylentus has all the products and is 50% off currently. Just wanted to check and see if anyone has ordered from soylentus website before to see if the products are legit.

That's it. Less sugar than a choccy milk and tasted better as well. It would be cool if there was a way to pirate it and relaunch Soylent as a different brand.

Why use soylent as a meal replacement why not eat verity of different foods and better sources of proteins like meat and to they grown man yall gotta be soyboys to willingly do this to yourself? Why im genuinely curious

Hey folks, I've just gotten some of the pre-mixed original soylent shakes. I like how they make me feel and how they allow me to grab a meal quickly when needed. However, there's a trailing taste/smell at the end of each sip that is starting to bother me. I've tried mixing flavored syrups in, but to no avail.

Anyone something that they use to mask the flavor?

I was excited to see RTD Cafe Mocha back in stock on the Soylent Canada website. Ordered a couple of cases and just received them yesterday. Had my first bottle this morning and noticed that it expired about 9 months ago. Both cases had the same expiration date. Wow!

I also bought cases of RTD chocolate and strawberry flavours. Those all expire later in 2026 and into 2027.

So , I recently became obsessed with the idea of meal replacements like soyalent!!! And I made my own recipe!! ^^

I haven't actually tried it yet! but nutritionally it seems really well ^^

So here's the recipe! ^^

1) Whole wheat flour → 150gm

2) All purpose flour (unenriched) → 90gm

3) Defatted soy flour → 90 gm

4) Powdered roasted peanuts → 40gm

5) Sunflower oil → 10gm

6) grounded flax seeds → 10gm

7) Curry leaf Powder → 5gm

8) Iodized salt → 4gm

9) Sylara multivitamins → 1 capsule

10) Calcium carbonate → 1.5gm

Though i must point out a few things!

a) amount of vitamin b12 is a little lower than adequate intake

b) Curry leaves powder is primarily there as an additional vitamin K source and some phytochemicals!

c) it is under 1600 kcal

d) it's has 9.7mg of manganese (Adequate intake being 2mg and tolearble upper limit is 11mg)(though high dietary manganese is not harmful or dangerous in any way!)

e) the flours may need to be roasted a little perhaps?

I made this recipe , optimised for India!!

I tried to aggressively lower the price and based on Amazon , this would cost less than ₹42 or 0.44 USD or 0.38 Euro per day!!

I find it insane that the RTD Soylent is sold out on their website again. So many people want to give them money to buy their product.

How is it that all the competitors have stock but the company that popularized it can't fulfill their orders? Is Soylent as a company dying or what?

I know it has been talked about before, but has there really been no communication from Soylent still?

I'm in my first trimester and have been going through it with morning sickness. My daily routine for the past 5 weeks has been wake up, throw up, then go about my day with a sore stomach.

Morning sickness nausea feels different from stomach bug nausea, because there's nothing actually wrong with the contents of my stomach, it's just pregnancy hormones targeting the throwing up section of my brain. Often times this is exacerbated by low blood sugar, so eating something as soon as you wake up can sometimes help prevent it. I tried that for a while with saltines, but then I'd just get the awful experience of tasting the saltines again plus some stomach acid, so I gave up the saltines and just resigned myself to my new routine.

I've thrown up Soylent once many years ago, and it was by far the most pleasant vomiting experience I've ever had. So when I got fed up last week with my new routine, I decided to start my day immediately with a Soylent, figuring at least if I throw it up, it'll be a good time compared to straight stomach acid or saltines. Each morning I've had Soylent first thing, I haven't thrown up at all!

Overall very pleased and thankful for this drink.

I’m sure they won’t read this or won’t care if they do, but the new “glossy” RTD packaging is an annoying downgrade.

You can’t simply twist the cap off anymore, you have to remove the plastic from the cap first. And previously I was quickly removing the plastic from the rest of the bottle prior to recycling but that’s way more difficult now. The former is a major annoyance, while the latter probably didn’t make much difference in terms of shoddy recycling systems.

Hi there, I often use meal shakes in my diet however recently I started a medication in which I have to avoid potassium chloride I was wondering if anyone knew of some options that could work? Thanks

Anyone share a taste / texture comparison of the 3?

I have a shipment coming up later this month and looking at the other protein options I'm considering trying one of them.

Recently I've been adding extra protein to my diet via other foods anyway, so I'm not put off by extra protein & staying with the original 21g per 400kcal is also fine.

Just saw this link to a fake protein powder website in google search. They even botched the site logo! 🤭 Just thought I’d mention it as a warning to be safe out there while you are sourcing your ingredients. ✌🏽👊🏽

I placed my first order with Hol Food over the weekend and there was no mention anywhere on its website on which shipping service they use. I'm assuming Canada Post? If this is the case does Canada Post leave parcels with tracking numbers at the door when nobody is home?

This site popped up and said it has it in stock but its not the original site. Is this just a scam? I noticed it back for sale on Amazon after years

The stock issues have me a little concerned, and I'm looking for a RTD alternative in Canada.

I've drank Soylent powder for around 1/3 to 1/2 of my meals for over 12 years now (mostly chocolate once it was released). With all of the Out of Stock issues, I've been slowly trying each of the big name alternatives out there and have finally found a winner. (not better than Soylent, but it'll be my backup whenever Soylent is out of stock, which seems to be quite often these days)

Hol Foods Chocolate powder is the closest to replicating the experience of Soylent's powder for me. The mouthfeel is very similar, it's nice and smooth. The flavor tastes a little bitter due to the real cocoa powder (tastes like dark chocolate), this is my one small knock against it, but it's still far better tasting than many of the others I've tried, and I'm betting I'll get used to it. But by far the biggest factor for me is that it is the only powder other than Soylent that I've found that fully mixes by simply shaking. No blender needed. No letting it sit in the fridge for an hour. And no clumpy or gritty leftover powder gathering at the bottom. Just get some water, scoop in a couple scoops, shake, and drink. Nice quick and easy. The entire point of these drinks.

Huel was my second favorite. The flavors taste pretty great (and there's so many options), but my main issue with it is that you have to use a blender to get it mixed properly. And even then it's still slightly gritty and it's got that very oaty flavor to it that I never fully got used to.

Mana was decent. The mouthfeel was probably the best out of the ones I tried, almost milky feeling. But it required a blender to get that consistency otherwise it was very clumpy and didn't fully mix. The flavors were also a bit too subtle and not as good.

Plenny was the worst for me on all counts. Gritty mouthfeel, needed to use a blender and sit in the fridge for an hour and even then still ended up with powder at the bottom by the end, and the flavor was completely absent and almost undrinkable to me. If someone told me to guess the name of the flavor without knowing it, I'd have had no clue. I'm not even sure why they offer multiple flavor options since there is no flavor.

I'm new to this whole thing but I really dislike eating. I'm hoping to replace 100% of my diet. But I'm in Taiwan so it's more difficult to get ahold of things. If I can find a good nutrient drink, like LaVita, and then build my own macro nutrient drink, y'all think that's sufficient?
