>Soylent is significantly cheaper than just about anything I could cook at home, even shopping sales and avoid pre-packaged food. I get eggs at the corner store across the street and a dozen is $3 and I eat four a day, so $1. I eat about 400-800 calories of Soylent per day, averaged out to let's call it 600 calories a day and at the price I am paying ($1.43/400 calories, 25% off new subscription order which you can do over and over again and stock up), about $2.15 a day average, for a grand total average of $3.15 a day. Mind you, I am on a VLCD, and have been for the last several months. When not doing that, I average about 1200 calories a day of Soylent and still four eggs, bringing the daily total to $5.29. Water is free.
>I value my time as well, and going to the store to do grocery shopping is a massive time suck. It's not free to park, gas isn't free and taking an Uber is going to run me at least $10 each way. I can take public transportation for a total of $5 round trip, but adds over an hour to the trip compared to an Uber or driving myself. Speaking of time, we haven't even gotten to the time it takes to cook and clean up, and not even factoring in the cost of cooking and cleaning supplies. I have a hard boiled egg cooker, that costs a whopping $13, and takes 4 minutes of effort between loading eggs, dumping them in bath of cold water and deshelling.
