why do people pay out the ass for food that would literally be used to show how dystopian a space civilization is?
like, the fact that there's an actual real company called "soylent" makes me want to eat nothing but home-grown vegetables for the rest of my life.
I like soylent, and according to the guy who named it, in the book it's just a miracle food, not people.
I don't pay out the ass for it, would certainly never buy this overpriced garbage, but I've ended up eating a lot of "space food" because I have pretty bad digestion issues and it's some of the only food I can eat that satisfies my daily nutritional requirements and does not hurt me after.
no idea why healthy people would do it tho, it generally sucks.
