    Adams himself noted, “The mineral fortification was hard to disguise, and because of the veggie and legume content, three bites of the Dilberito made you fart so hard your intestines formed a tail.” The New York Times noted the burrito “could have been designed only by a food technologist or by someone who eats lunch without much thought to taste.”

    Well sign me right the fuck up, this seems like true miracle chow

      “could have been designed only by a food technologist or by someone who eats lunch without much thought to taste.”

      And years later, Soylent was created by the same type of person.

      I legitimately enjoyed having an almost tasteless, yet filling, meal that I could consume while working, but like all good things it was ruined when capitalists bought it and replaced the sugar with some artificial shit.

        I miss Soylent as well. I think the peak was the bottled version right before they switched to the “sqround” bottles.

          I only ever had the soylent in the bottles. I was really surprised when i tried unflavored soy milk and it was almost the exact same flavor as the white bottles! Soylent is just soy milk with vitamins in it!

      I suspect you’re being sarcastic, but holy fuck I want this. I have zero issues with high-fiber food and if I could have a quick, healthy meal I didn’t have to think about, I’d want it.

      Edit: not if I had to support Scott Adams though
