I like that they aren't saying "get rid of food entirely." Tonight my wife and I are going out to celebrate our anniversary and the idea of not having a really nice meal together as a part of the celebration just wouldn't seem right. But there are countless meals that I have which are less than "special." Soylent would could potentially be a great replacement for 70% of the meals I consume.

I imagine it will take some time to get away from pull of communal dining. We've been gathering around a fire or hearth for centuries as groups to consume food. It's such an enormous part of our social/familial fabric. Will people still gather to consume Soylent in the same way?
