My family's a bunch of jerks. Fuck them.
That said, replacing real food with nutrient-added chemical slop was always pretty utilitarian and depressing to me...
no chemicals, the ingredients are just things like oats and coconuts and flax seeds and other stuff like that, measured so they have like 33% of everything you need in your guideline daily allowance
it is utilitarian, you don't drink this stuff to enjoy it, you drink it cause lets say you're in the middle of work, instead of having to cook you can just drink it fast and continue your work
queal's flavours are actually okay but it doesn't have to replace food if you don't want to, most of my meals are still "normal", but the long shelf life of this stuff just to have it around is very convenient, if you miss "real" food, just eat whatever you want, you can really just use it to skip a meal if you have to
plus sometimes its the middle of the night and i dont want to wake up my family using the microwave or get out the pots and pans or anything like that
