The End of Food

Rhinehart created something out of nothing, from being broke to having his creation of Soylent. After reading this article, I have a huge interest in Soylent. I don't think I will have such unshakable fortitude that he has. Not having food for an entire day will definitely kill me mentally. Food to me is more than just supplying my body with nutrients. Its a comfort and enjoyment that I love. Its fulfilling to feel completely full and still eat food. I understand that it can help with American obesity and it is much lower in cost but will it is not something that can ever replace food. Cultures are based on the foods we eat, and if we are unable to enjoy the food we eat how is one to express their culture. Imagine everyone in the world eating the exact same thing, what would it be like? There won't be those moments where you try new foods and explore exotic foods. What would happen to your favorite foods? Soylent may not be for everyone but I think it's worth trying for those who are anorexic and bulimic. They are able to consume nutrients and feel satisfied. It's a drink that won't make you gain weight and gives you the energy you need to do daily activities.
