Soylent: Life After Food...Remember Eat To Live Not Live To Eat

Posted by Krishna Kalki on June 24, 2014 at 10:39am in Food, Health and Nutrition
With the rising cost of food andfor busy people, everywhere,the options for getting adequatenutrition are limited.One can either go out or ordertake-out/delivery for a more-often-than-not, unhealthy mealat a "restaurant."The term is used loosely, here;the "food" (a.k.a. "phude") maycome from a fast food chain, whoseingredients are dubious, at best -or from decent restaurants, wherethe norm is that far more saturatedfats, salt and culturally-accepted,brain-damaging excito-toxins, likesoy sauce are added, than one mayadd, while cooking one's own meals.Such a conundrum might make aperson, such as myself, who worksmore than 12 hours per day tosearch for an alternative, or to justforgo eating regular meals, entirely.Enter Soylent.Is Soylent the future of food? CEO,Rob Rhinehart lived on his liquidinvention for 30 days straight, andthe feat propelled him to internetfame and fortune. Rhinehart, anengineer by training, has a dreamis to make his product available,similarly to a public utility, so thata liquid meal is always available,literally, on tap to anyone who paysfor his service. He dreams to offernutrition that is both ecologically-sustainable and which also satisfiesthe nutritional needs of the humanbody.Rhinehart doesn't advocate completelyforegoing real food - but in a worldwith pesticide-laden, GMO'd food andmillions of people, worldwide who arestarving to death, he sees this as astop-gap solution to an inevitable foodcrisis, as the world's population keepsgrowing.Silicon Valley investors have agreedwith his vision, pouring millions ofdollars into the Soylent project.The host of this MOTHERBOARDsegment, Brian Merchant decided tobecome the first person to repeatRhinehart's feat: to live for a monthstraight, on nothing but the chemicalcocktail.Along the way, he investigated howan artificial food replacement mightimpact human health, Silicon Valleyand the world at large.Of course, Soylent can't replace food.Food has many other social andpsychological dimensions to it, besidesnourishment.Nonetheless, this is the story of life afterfood.(Video: 24 minutes):Soylent: Life After Foodhttp://www.ForbiddenKnowledgeTV.com/page/26482.html- Alexandra

"The so-called "scare event" should polarise the people against nuclear war and expose the cabal war mongers...It may not even happen, as already the war mongers are not getting the support they need, with America rapidly removing itself, from the…"

"Since you guys were talking about the nuke testing situation a little bit ago I will say I agree that a nuclear war definitely won't happen. I do think though the whole scare event Q mentioned in an earlier post might happen during this time period…"
