Lately I've been making tea as a way to ritualize meals and add water to my diet, because Soylent tends to make the entire eating thing different.
I've had some terrible experiences with teas which would stain my teeth and upset my stomach with their "flavourings", so I looked around to find an alternative.
Boy did I find a damned good one.

Dilmah makes a pure single-source Ceylon tea. No flavouring and no extra shit.
- Sri Lanka is formerly Dominion of Ceylon, which is where the name "Ceylon tea" comes from.
 I liked this, only as Sencha

Made the very best green tea I've ever had or probably will ever had.
Unfortunately, they stopped making it.
I find Soylent extraordinarily palatable, but I know others would be interested in taste customization.

While thinking about Soylent, some other things came to mind.
Products are labelled with this notion of "daily requirements", but that's an incomplete and possibly non-optimal paradigm. Similarly, the food groups and servings per day concept has the same perspective problem.
I think these are useful and valid concepts, but there are some other interesting things to think about.

Some notes on how I prepare and eat Soylent.
I haven't experimented with Soylent flavouring for my own use.

A meal replacement beverage.
A hands-down spectacular idea and implementation. Strongly recommended, not just for diet or general health but for lifestyle.
- I've been eating Soylent for months now, and have even eaten it as my only food. It's wonderful.

These notes are for the from-powder 1.5 version.

A rough rambling I didn't think much about and never finished.
Why are you fat?
