For those who haven't seen the movie...
Soylent is my catch all name for all big corporate, genetically modified food companies. Today, the main foods are corn, soy, and palm. So many cakes & cookies and now cereals have been ruined by replacing sugar, wheat flour, and butter with corn syrup, corn flour, & palm oil. It's all leading up to Soylent Green.
believe it or not, there IS a product out there called Soylent. Its supposedly some sort of soy based nutritional supplement or something. It keeps popping up on my Facebook suggested posts. All of the comments are people saying "its people!!!!!"
If we can't protect a venerated product like Boo-Berry then we as a society have lost.
When I first threw my back out in 1997, my doctor proscribed me Soma as a muscle relaxer. I thought it was weird that a drug maker would use a name that was also the name of the opiate populace-control drug from Brave New World.
Corn, soy, and palm oil are also destroying the environment and pulling nutrients from the soil (due to monoculture planting). I try to avoid when possible.For those who haven't seen the movie...
