The Deli Man is officially the 2nd most evil thing you can watch while Fasting. 😂
The evilest is still Episode 21(alternative source) of Barefoot Friends.

Drinking a can of Dr Pepper and reading the list of ingredients, besides sugar and artificial sweeteners I found one that struck me as interesting: “Sucralose.”
Sucralose is “non-nutritive” and about 600 times as sweet as ordinary sugar. It’s so useless for anything else even it’s name has 200% sugar. 😂

Das ist einer der besten Nasreddin Hoca Witze überhaupt.
Als ein Verwandter vom Land den Hoca besuchte, brachte er eine Ente mit. Hocherfreut ließ dieser das Federvieh zubereiten und teilte das Mahl mit seinem Gast. In der Folgezeit tauchte ein Mann nach dem anderen beim Hoca auf. Jeder behauptete, ein Freund des Freundes des Mannes zu sein, der die Ente mitgebracht hatte. Der Hoca bewirtete sie alle, bis seine Mittel erschöpft waren. Als wieder ein “Freund” erschien, setzte Hoca ihm eine Schale Wasser vor. “Was ist das?” fragte der Gast erstaunt. “Das ist die Suppe der Suppe der Suppe der Ente, die mir mein Verwandter geschenkt hat.”
Milch ist das Beste! Es stillt Hunger und Durst gleichzeitig. Es dient der Nahrungsaufnahme und dem Genuss. Es schmeckt sowohl kalt als auch warm. Es ist sowohl pur genießbar, als auch in Kombination mit anderen Lebensmitteln als Haupt- (Milchgetränke, Milchreis, etc.) als auch als Nebenzutat (Müslis, Tee, Kaffee, diverse Süßspeisen, etc.). Außerdem ist es Ausgangsstoff für diverse andere leckere Dinge (Butter, Käse, Joghurt, Eis!, etc.).
Milch hat auch andere Vorteile.
Yogurt has plenty of benefits to confer, among them large testicles, swagger, and glossy fur – at least if you’re a mouse.

Ich könnte meine Wertschetzung als Gedicht formulieren.
Milch ist rein, Milch ist Unschuld.
Milch ist Leben, Milch ist Mutter.
Milch ist heimelig, Milch ist super! 😀
Deswegen: MILCH!!! 😀 … ich hoffe ihr habt jetzt Appetit drauf bekommen. 😉
Someone Ate This is a great collection of bad taste and horrific laziness in food preparation … 😀

ArsTechnica has probably the best piece I’ve read covering the meta-problem with Soylent.
Nobody will live off of Soylent for extended periods of time. And even if there were people like that they would be considered at least as weird or crazy as maybe vegans or people with similarly “limited” diets.
Soylent won’t destroy anything in our food culture that hasn’t been already destroyed. Why would anyone care if you drank Soylent instead of eating your drive-through fast-food alone. Chugging down a glass of Soylent instead of munching a chocolate bar between meetings. The cultural aspect of eating together is moot in those cases. At least Soylent would provide a “nutritiously balanced” choice here.
Yes, people must eat, but people don’t *need* to cook (themselves). And honestly many people don’t. I can’t really see the difference between eating out, just heating things up in a microwave or oven or drinking Soylent for that matter. The cultural aspect of preparing food is lost in those cases anyway. This may be partly because of the next aspect.
Cooking is not as easy as it may sound. It requires following “discrete series of steps guided by a mix of instruction, experience, and intuition” “surrounded with a complex support scaffolding” (I really advise you to read the 2nd page of that article). It is as easy and as necessary for a fairly normal everyday life as is compiling software. (I still believe that cooking is the analog equivalent of programming). I second the argument that as easy and essential it may look to some, it looks equally impenetrable and “magic” to others.
One interesting aspect I’ve not thought of previously was that Soylent may be a way to relieve people with eating disorders of guilt and anxiety when eating the “wrong food”. Since “for people struggling with food-related issues, it can be like a damaging drug that you can never quite quit cold turkey” it may provide an unambiguous food choice that is “satiating without being delicious.” It makes preparing and consuming food quantifiable which was the problem for the last two groups of people in the first place.
I don’t really care if it’s Soylent or something else. If find the possibilities intriguing. It’ll get a lot more interesting once anyone cared to study the long-term effects of consuming Soylent. But I’ll definitely try some once it gets available in Germany. 😉

Mein Vater: Was gibt’s zu essen?
Ich: Gute Vorsätze und falsche Versprechungen.
