Comment on Trying Soylent didn’t go wellparent

Comments

JimmyJoy shakes are not Soylent shakes.

175g of JimmyJoy = 45g protein. That's hard to beat, especially considering all the other things you get with it.

I had no intention of complaining about cholesterol.

26% protein, mostly of wheat, which doesn't have a balanced amount of essential amino acids. Also 51% carbs and 10% fat. I wouldn't want that, way too many carbs. Fat is the best energy source for the human body, for so many reasons I wouldn't stop talking about them.

But anyway, split roasted chicken[0] has the same proportion of protein (26%, but the serving is bigger at 65g). It comes with 4 individual bags of 250g of chicken for ~4.65€ (1.16€ each) and one can just heat a bag in the microwave. And it's very well seasoned and delicious.
