We have a lot of cereals made by Kellogs. They seem to have

Aren't you lucky. Most of them are expensive ****. I prefer whole
grain
meal not very far from the original grain. For some like
buckwheat, I
grind it myself. That way I know what's in the bowl.

Cereal is about the cheapest food you can get here, even the branded
stuff.


You're screwed. Special K from Amazon is $3.36 a pound. Hard red
spring
wheat berries are $0.75 a pound. Grind them to a coarse meal and make
porridge. You'd be missing out on all the soybean **** Kellogg
puts in
Special K.

The most important thing to me is that the food requires **** all
effort
to prepare.


Figures. Just get a few cases of Pop Tarts.

Why create food when it can be mass produced?


https://huel.com/

Huel is not available in the US so I haven't tried it. I do know that
pea protein powder isn't going to replace Pop Tarts anytime soon but
it's good for you. 100% vegan, so no cows are slaving away in the
odorous, cramped quarters of a commercial dairy operation for your
benefit.

Should you try it, please give us a report.


Is this meant to replace all food? If so, does it come in many
flavours? Or I'd get bored.


I don't know if it preceded Soylent or followed, but it supposedly has a
complete nutritional profile.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soylent_(meal_replacement)

Before it became a product, Soylent was an experiment by a software jock
who thought eating was a waste of time. Both come in several flavors.
That could be a problem. I've found that some of the flavored whey
protein powders can get old fast. Bland is good because you can doctor
them up with cinnamon, cardamon, cocoa powder, and so forth.


Eating IS a waste of time. If that product could satisfy my hunger, desire for flavours, etc, then I'd be happy to eat it.
