I'm about to open a soylent container, and want to stop for a moment and ponder how amazing even the container is.
The container:
-- Machined and kinda attractive while being forgetable
-- the same hue and texture as all soylent containers
-- recycleable (level 7, so only barely). There's also a level 2 recycle label on it marked "hope. I'm not really sure what that means.
-- sealed with plastic, such that the human consumeable food inside is shelf stable.
-- resealable, though not to the same standard.
What's inside:
-- Precisely 400 calories
-- enjoyable, though bland
-- cheap, definitely as compared to first world foods.
-- contains all nutrients, minerals, and vitamins that the feds say a person needs.
Whether you like the product or not, this is an astonishing bit of engineering.
