I usually have a "don't knock it until you try it" stance when it comes to food, but... okay, this is a stretch, but meal replacement drinks.
I don't think people enjoy it. I don't think anyone would really opt for it instead of a, IDK, freshly cooked lechong paksiw over steaming hot rice or whatever tempting meal of your imagination.
I just can't comprehend it. Why would anyone enjoy it, masochism? a desire to achieve the ultimate in asceticism? an acquired taste?
This is the soylent stuff, right? I dunno man, ever since I've seen the "soup" eaten on the Matrix, I said to myself to never just go full meals on juice. There's just something about being able to chew and enjoy your food (as well as the variety). I get it, it has everything the body needs, but tasting the way we want it? surely there's no harm in adding that (most of the time).
EDIT: That being said, I've had a ton of fun preparing oat meal in various ways (sweet, savory, wtf, etc.)
Yung nabili ko hindi yung soylent, Nutrilife or some MLM-sounding shit. Di naman na din ako umulit after I bought one week's worth of that shit. Di na rin ako bumalik sa gym na yun, hahahaha!
Pucha, gusto kong pumayat via exercise, hindi dahil sa gutom!
Oof. Must be really bad then. But as you said, the itch to find out just how bad is scratching at me rn. LOL
