Anyone else heard of this stuff? It supposedly is a drink that can replace food.

Here is the kickstarter:

This will surely provoke reactions. I just found out about it and remain neutral towards it for the time being.
Thoughts?
Nooo! Don't drink it! Its people! Oh god its made out of people!
This is, after all, not an completely original idea:
Daryl has a thread on it back in March.
That's only the Soylent Green . . . Soylent Red would be perfectly OK for backpackers.
Oat powder and maltodextrin…Nothing new there.
MCTs, vitamins, minerals and electrolytes… Nothing new there.
Putting lipstick on a pig….Nothing new there.
Outstanding marketing plan….now we're talking!
You got it Greg! We're talking Genetically modified corn for the Maltodex, 'salt' for sodium, which is a really bad choice, etc etc…..Ugh, a blend of white powders marketed by a group of young, nutritionally inexperienced entrepreneur's. I'll stick to food thanks!
