Wow. It is unbelievable that you would just toss it like that when A. Others would have gladly taken it. and B. That could have fed a person in need. It's not even like you threw away perishable food, that is like throwing away unopened canned goods.

Excuse the pun but, rubbish. Don't believe you at all, should have taken a pic and uploaded it to your imgur. But either way it's a lose-lose situation for you because even if you did do it we'd just call you a wasteful idiot.

You could also try this http://discourse.soylent.me/t/has-anyone-else-seen-space-nutrients-station/11423 , from what they say on the page it doesn't have the gas effect that Soylent has. Personally I'm going to try it because I to had issues with gas…

You are right. Also, you don't have to worry as much about mercury in fish from fish oil pills, as the fish oil usually comes from an oily fish. The most widely used fish are anchovies, since they have the most oil per oz of fish. They are pretty low…

omikron - Jun 11, 2014 6:14pm
That's true. I suppose in theory the personal satisfaction of "throwing it away" could be worth something. To the right person, that could be worth quite a bit. Perhaps $500 or so.... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
sp1d3rx - Jun 11, 2014 6:13pm
I appreciate all the openness of the responses here. It's interesting to document the differences in experience after going on this diet. So NoFlames, are you saying that it's powdery when excreted?
soylenter - Jun 11, 2014 6:09pm
Thank you @JulioMiles. Maybe I should have posted here earlier! I don't see the change on backerkit. Is this expected?
Injector - Jun 11, 2014 6:07pm
Also group buys (at least in the automotive parts area, that I'm familiar with), are to manufacturers who normally only sell to resellers. The group buy is to get an order large enough that they don't mind dealing with it. The discount then is to the…

Myself, like most folks dont read the fine print of instructions. I started using warm water to mix my soylent b/c IMO it makes it less gritty the next morning. So at 1am I had an OH SHIT moment b/c i washed my pitcher but i forgot to mix a new batch.…
Benji - Jun 11, 2014 6:00pm
No offense but they kinda already did a group buy, thousands of people got in on it.... With demand as it is at the moment, they have zero incentive of doing a 'group buy' in the traditional sense.
achemerys - Jun 11, 2014 5:57pm
im on day 3. mixed with cold water on day one and had the gloop in the top of the lid. now i fill 1/3 full of warm/hot water and it mixes smoother and i dont have the cake in the lid.

It would be nice for this to happen, although it would most likely require shipping by common carrier (Think tractor trailer) instead of fedex/ups/etc. It's a higher cost to ship small batches, but it's close to the same price whether the truck has 1…

Would it be worth it to get together either small or large groups {based on criteria to be decided later} and see if we could get a group buy/volume discount? Just curious to see if it would be worth it...Or possible. Thoughts? Ideas? Suggestions?…
BriBy - Jun 11, 2014 5:36pm
Thanks! I haven't gotten my official Soylent yet. My DIY gave me the toots for about ten days until it finally eased up. I didn't think it would be possible to stick with it. I used a lot of Gas-X in those days. I hope it settles down for you. Let…

Oh heck no... NO MLM. I don't think they would ever contemplate something like that anyway.
j8048188 - Jun 11, 2014 5:31pm
I'd be fine with a referral program as long as it does NOT turn into a Multi-Level Marketing thing. If it does, I'm out and off of Soylent.

It's not going to waste if he/she is getting personal satisfaction out of throwing it away, for whatever reason. Regardless of what any of us here thinks about it - this is their product, they spent their money on it, and they are free to dispose of…

Get something to stir with. Fill the pitcher 1/3 full with water, and start swirling it around as you pour in the powder. Once the powder is in, and mixed evenly, then add the oil, give it a shake, and then top off with how ever much more water (and ice…

It seems like carrying 88 days worth of soylent around might be a bit cumbersome. Surely pilgrims can eat with the monks/nuns?
Mystify - Jun 11, 2014 4:46pm

A follow up to my concerns about too much being left in the blender carafe. It isn't going to be an issue. When mixing up 1750mL of solution (suspension? participate?) it's thin enough that 99% of it runs out into the pitcher without any issues. Simple…

Maybe after a longer period of time, but I have definitely been in embarrassing situations at work. I get the reluctance to use it in an office setting. I just stopped caring, but people have walked into my office and entered a world of nasty.

I think throwing it away is insane. BUT The gas doesn't go away. Yes, I have had 2-3 meals a week of regular food, but the gas doesn't go away. I have NEVER had such bad gas with a normal healthy diet. I do think it is something that has to be taken…

That is my point; people who have received their first soylent orders and people who have not are 2 separate cases on when they will receive their new soylent orders, and hence need to be listed separately.
