I feel for you @SpikeX. It is a huge violation when someone attempts to steal your private information and your hard-earned money. Thanks for the heads up. It's always good to be reminded to keep vigilant in this area.

I'm going to agree with everything you said minus the first and last statements. I think @ana is supposed to be the "hired someone in a position that would be able to make the correct moves in regards to communications", as things seem to be improving…

BriBy said: That would seem to suggest that passwords had been compromised as well as usernames. It was only in later posts that we discovered this was not the case. Sorry for the confusion, you are correct. I've edited my post. BriBy said:

O_O The Vitamin A and Folate levels on that thing... That would freak me out, but keep updating us on how it goes...

Queal costs $214.65 for 90 meals per month on the subscription plan, in today's Euro to Dollar conversion, anyway. It has a variety of flavors and formulations. This is exciting stuff! We all knew that Soylent was going to bring a food revolution.…

After long discussions with customer service it turned out that FedEx is currently having problems shipping to my address Is it possible to reship the order via UPS? I can pay for extra charges of course.

You are right, of course. However, this is what was stated in his original post: SpikeX said: I got e-mails from my bank and other sites informing me that my account had had its security breached. That would seem to suggest that passwords had been…

Changing your address on Backerkit won't have any effect, as they exported all addresses from it a while back. You'd have to email info@soylent.me or tag the Soylent team in the forums, as @livingparadox has already done.

I just had my Soylent for lunch. Since I'm going to be good and follow their advice to not jump straight in to 3 meals a day, I'm planning on having a farewell-to-food Hot Pocket tonight.

I'm gonna eat Soylent for dinner tonight... Some nights I eat muggle food... but I'm in the mood for Soylent.

It's breakfast for me, but I am currently having some soylent

http://www.thebairs.net/2014/08/using-a-pump-for-oil-measuring-is-awesome/ Title pretty much sums it up. For an added bonus: I’m still laughing at the thought that someone might mistake it for hand soap and try to wash their hands with it. Insert Dr.…

Probably. Tagging @ana, @MattCauble

Hello, I've heard the shipments to Canada are going to take a long time, but that shipments to the US are going out now. I have a 1-month order. If I change my address on backerkit to a friend's address in the US, will my shipment arrive there sooner?…

Another muggle meal for me...Grilling steaks tonight!!!

Question: How to determine how long it takes for Soylent to complete its journey through your body. Does gender or age matter?Answer: Add food coloring (green of course) to Soylent, consume, wait, and observe. Any others?

Products like this look promising, but at this point that one is not for purchase (only pre-orders). They say they will start shipping in Spring 2015 and will charge your card now. Also, Vitamin D testing is not a problem for me, it's one of the few…

I'm actually having my first glass right now, which for me is dinner

The sweetness mainly comes from the vanillin and maltodextrin (sp?)

Apple Pie flavour! Yum yum

I use this one, it's not quite half a day of Soylent, but I drink about half my breakfast before I go to work at 5:30, and when I get home it's still cold at 3:30. Actually the other day I ate lunch at the office and forgot that I still had Soylent in…

I, too, am pretty miffed that sucralose was snuck into what I was led to believe would be a pure product. Soylent is too sweet as it stands now, and I wonder if omitting the sucralose might actually make it more neutral. I drank a glass of Soylent hours…

I have not been following this. When I get time I'll review and see if I can offer anything constructive.

Who is having only Soylent for dinner?

I still use LastPass. The two issues they had were with 'bookmarklets' and one time passwords, neither of which I've ever used. The security issues weren't in place for a year, but were fixed a year ago. LastPass didn't mention it until a year later.…

Thanks, I hadn't thought of rice flour. I'll see if I can get some and see how it works. This is my recipe for her so far. http://diy.soylent.me/recipes/dino-chow-10-1700 It still needs some work. I prefer the lower corn flour in my oat recipe, and…

Between the years 2002 and 2008, I had the luxury of have 10 kidney stones. Mine are the calcium based. I have not had any since.. I have been on Soylent for 2 months now. No issues what so ever.. Hope that helps.

If it had been malware/logger, he wouldn't have got a warning, but simply lost his account/data/stuff

Both of mine came from FedEx, but it may not be the same for everyone.

I think the "Range" suggestion by @livingparadox sounds like a great idea... one that even FDA should support. @MattCauble "Vitamin A: 15-20mg" as an example.

Glad to see more alternatives pop up specially here in Europe

This is good data, I would say it settles around there. Looking forward to when you get a chance to test distilled water. or perhaps even water with a starting pH closer to 7? wonder what Soylents pH would end at if it had a pH of 6

I think I found it https://cue.me looks like it is currently 200 USD. It sounds like it can only do 5 types of tests currently, but because of how its made, it can do additional tests, as they release the cartridges for it. Sounds like cartridges are…

I wonder if they'll get in trouble for putting this on their site: The Soylent of Europe, Nederland

24 hours after initial mix: 6.6 I would say that this is within margin of error and there has been no real change.

Just when I was trying to decide to go with Joylent, it's nice to see alternatives come in. And I like the fact they have a choice of flavors.

I guess this isn't very useful this community since everyone is very knowledgeable on the subject.

I think most things have such different amounts for the RDA and Max intake that you'll be fine even if Soylent is 3x everything. Remember that these are sustained intakes that matter, and it's hard to need 2 grams of something, but for 3 grams to be toxic.

Actually, I highly recommend avoiding LastPass like the plague. If you hadn't heard LastPass has a couple of massive Security Issues that were in place for a year that kind of made it worthless. Their response was a subtle blog post with a non-descriptive…

When you do get your Soylent, try to remember the first rule of toxicology--the dose makes the poison. I believe you that sucralose can cause your headaches; we're all different and respond differently to different things. I just hope you can avoid giving…

JeffLeBert said: I put in about 4 grams per day and it seems to keep the consistency smoother. I use psyllium husk for this purpose. I use 5-6g in my receipe and it does wonders. I equate it to the difference in mouth feel of 2% milk to whole milk.…

http://queal.eu/ The Soylent bandwagon is going strong.

Thanks for all the information. This has been extremely helpful. Not that I was worried, but I do know someone who had kidney stones once that's interesting in trying it, so I'm delighted to see I have a strong case.

I can't imagine needing a few more calories would put you in keto with as many carbs as Soylent has, maybe if someone was so extraordinary active that they burned the carbs off as fast as they ate them, but in general you're probably going to need to…

Another update for yesterday and today.

The in-house mixing of Soylent was only during the beta tester phase. All Soylent 1.0 that has shipped has come from RFI. they have plans for future in-house packing, but they're not there yet.

Got the oil yesterday when I got home. Thanks! The new "caps" are cute and convenient. They did leak slightly during transport (one could see oil stains on the packaging, and the envelope with the business cards (as well as the top and bottom card) was…

Great! I'll keep posting. I'm in the middle of a move right now, but I'll keep posting later. And I think it might be too much to say it "does not work". It's not that I feel terrible or anything, just a little less "100%". I might be unusual in that…

The majority of time I don't. And the effects are directly correlated with additional oil. I don't know what else to attribute them to... I thought it was weird to, given I'm not actually low carb. But I was also usually hungry before I added the…

j8048188 said: Some pictures can be found on RFI's website. I was referring to the in-house factory that they are building or have built. The last time I saw the manufacturing for Soylent was when they were using large plastic containers and hand mixing…

I wasn't sure if you were giving into the cravings. Symptoms sound strange, I'm not sure where they would be coming from so long as you're eating a normal amount of food. You're definitely not in keto, if Soylent is your main staple you're getting ~50%…

Totally understandable; you guys are just getting rolling! Thank you so much for the reply, it means a lot to be heard.

I use program to manage passwords, and ALL sites I login has long and nasty password. Good luck figuring mine for here.

Oh right 1/4th teaspoon. I had the right measurement I just didn't write it on here correctly.

Thanks for the feedback on subscription sizes! It's definitely something we've heard before. Right now we're trying to keep it pretty simple for our fulfillment processes but you never know in the future!

How long had you been on Soylent? Perhaps it is hunger headaches? I don't think you can blame it on the oil to be honest... But you could actually blame the dreams/nightmares on the headaches

We've been working on this today and hopefully it will be sorted out tomorrow morning! Sorry about this!

Yeah little too much salt there but the seperation is normal. I found that it seperates less after this first soak. (Shake it)

Haha. I'm actually on ~100% Soylent right now. So my typical diet is official Soylent. I mostly just make mental notes of the foods that sound good in order to tailor my Soylent, and very occasionally take my fiance out to eat. And I don't know if…

What is your diet for a typical day recently? How much fat are you adding, and how many carbs are you cutting? I've been toying with keto soylent off and on and really like how I feel when I am in ketosis. It doesn't sound like your getting yourself…

Does anyone here using Soylent suffer from gastritis or stomach ulcers? What effects has it had for you? There are lots of foods you are supposed avoid if you have these conditions, I'm hoping Soylent won't be one of them.

Makes handling refunds trickier, I'd imagine.

Nacho cheese less satisfying than predicted... Removing cheese from list of cravings now... Soylent is now back to being one of my top food choices.

Yeah, the starter kit isn't even shipped with the same shipping carrier. IIRC, they are shipping with USPS for the starter kit, and with FedEx for the Soylent.

Also, it's a quarter teaspoon of salt. A quarter tablespoon would be way too much.

I know that rice flour is fairly popular. Searching the DIY section shows quite a few recipes that are made with rice flour as a base. Here is a link to a recipe that uses rice flour as a main ingredient. (I can't vouch for the taste as that is just…

Super normal. Shake vigorously and carry on.

Week 9! The confusingly ketogenic edition! Any feedback from the low-carb/ketogenic crowd would be appreciated.

Lord Byron might be the one I'm thinking of: For most of his life he was a vegetarian, and often lived for days on dry biscuits and white wine. [nineteenth century Soylent] Occasionally he would eat large helpings of meat and desserts, after which he…

My partner is allergic to gluten, enough that oats bother her. Corn has also been causing issues as well, so that maybe is off the menu as the main flour. So, without oat, wheat, or corn, what are my options for flours (or other bases) and what should…

Shake it up. This is normal

For our second week on 1.0, my wife and I have been adding 1tbs of acacia fiber to our soylent. In addition to the mustard gas, we were having soft, acidic stool. Our stool consistency has improved and they are no longer painful and burning. Our gas…

I received my Soylent this morning around 10am I figured if I started soaking it right away I could have some ready in time for a late dinner. Well I just went into my fridge and my Soylent had separated. The water was sitting on top of the soylent (a…

We've been adding the acacia fiber, 1tbs per pouch, since day 9. We've also been taking store brand align each night, and emptying one capsule of lutein and lycopene into each batch. First up, just by adapting my eating patterns I'm having a much more…

Yup, it's a thing. Especially while backpacking through a gorgeous forest with some soylent. Can't especially update MFP out there though.

Well I'm starting at a new university this fall and I will be getting a new part time job or volunteering in addition. It feels kind of stressful but I wouldn't attribute stress with nightmares in my case because I've not found it to be a factor in whether…

I've no expert insight, but I can say that oddly enough I was just talking about this with my wife this morning. She often remembers her dreams and they are typically vivid, epic, fantasy fulfilment about being a wizard or a dragon or something. She's…

I am not the droid you are looking for

The starter kit and the initial order are shipped separately even thought the starter kit is "part" of the initial order. As such, why not ship starter kits out to paid customers while we wait for RL to ship us the Soylent that is overdue? They've had…

I actually went and did this. Canada is surprisingly bad for just preventive screening. The only tests for vitamins and mineral deficiencies you could get without a referral to a specialist were B12, Ca, and Mg. You had to pay yourself if you wanted…

Come on now, you should be ashamed of yourself for not already knowing this... Bad Soylenteer, bad!

Grintor, thank you for the recipe link it is always good to see new ideas. As someone else mentioned, some people have problems with gluten and wheat allergies which is why it isn't used more often. A tongue in cheek way you can fix the grittiness is…

I made the "Bachelorette Chow" The corn grittiness made me wanna barf, I just subtracted it from the recipe, it didn't seem to add a justifiable amount of nutrition. It can be easily made up for with 1 meal/snack of regular food.

Yea I would call Fedex for sure. It could be a problem with your address on the package.

Herę is the tracking link: https://m.fedex.com/mt/www.fedex.com/fedextrack/html/index.html?action=track&action=track&action=track&language=english&tracknumbers=749761710073952&un_jtt_redirect

you could call FedEx and ask them to look into this. If they attempted delivery and were unable to leave the package that may be what is going on. You can ask for it to be held at a local FedEx office for pick up.

Tagging @juliomiles, @mattcauble, and @ana. (As you're a new user, you don't have permission to post pictures, so we can't see what's going on)I can link the picture if you'd like, I just need to know where it is.

I just received the above exception from FedEx on both packages (starter kit and 1M) and they are being returned. What does it mean and why it happened? What will happen with my order?

Awesome information. Thanks Mom!

Oh, the password is different - it just tripped the bank's security system because someone attempted to log in a bunch of times and it failed. But yes, I agree 100% - never use the same password for more than one site. There are techniques out there…
