Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The whole point we buy these very expensive little drinks is for convenience. We are all busy. It is tremendously convenient to simply open a bottle and drink something to refuel quickly. I say all this to emphasize the core competitive advantage that Soylent needs to remind itself it strives for. Equally as important as the drink is the packaging and convenience. This morning I drank half my shake and packed the rest in my briefcase with a few scrubs and my computer. When I arrived at work the bottle had exploded over all my belongings. “You shouldn’t have trusted the bottle.” In retrospect, I agree..but also-why the hell not? That is literally the point of buying these resealable bottles. I can make a nutritious smoothie with about $0.20 of ingredients but I pay $3 a pop so I can sip on these throughout the day. The company decided to cheap out on their bottle packaging to pinch pennies and we as consumers suffer. No one thinks twice about popping a water bottle or Gatorade into their gym bag. This costs 3x as much and is made of joke material. I’d advise against this brand until they learn how to make a competitive product. For the record I’ve tried several other protein drink brands and have never had an issue with a bottle exploding. Good luck to all and I hope you don’t need to waste a day replacing a laptop like I did.
