Would you eat a meal comprised entirely of compressed food cubes?
>>22045391that's exactly what cheap deli meat is and I love that. I also enjoy spam.
if it was cheap yes
>>22045391what the other guy saidif it was cheat, nutritious, clean and properly bio-available (whole dark grains, no-additive red meat, no sugar or artificial sweeteners), etc.I'd expect about 200-250 calories each. I do intermittent fasting, so I only eat from 12 to 8. I'd eat about 10 of them if they were 200 calories each during that time window. That generally covers my TDEE plus the extra I burn at work or the gym. Weekends I'd probably just fast a whole day and have nothing.
>>22045391No I actually enjoy cooking and eating too
>>22045391Maybe, if it was cheaper than normal food.
>>22045391If it was cheap, yeah. I forgot what company makes those but I remember the prices being a total rip off. You're paying $20 for less than a pound of food.
>>22045391I would try it but if it didn’t blow me away with concentrated flavor I’d be disappointed
>>22045396>water enriched meat discs
>>22045391Turn it into a disk and you got yourself a burger patty
>>22045391Only if they're round.

>>22045391No, and no one else did either.That's why they went out of business promptly after losing their startup money
>>22045711Microplastics.
>>22045391Someone reviewed it here once. It was solidly alright. I wouldn't for the price they were selling it at.
>>22046425Micro plastics help you decompose slower
>>22046425Im a macroplastics man myself
>>22045391If I remember right that cube food thing failed pretty hard.
>>22046425Looks like somebody won't be getting a visit from Davis
>>22046941I think they were just doing it for the kickstarter bux.
>>22046947Can you explain what you think the purpose of Kickstarter is?
>>22046948I think of a dumb idea and get to rip off random people while marketing an idea no sane investor would ever invest in?
>>22045391You'd never get enough calories.A food cube like that is at most ~225 calories.And most likely much less.
>>22046998>you'd never get enough calories, a single grain of rice is less than a calorie
>>22045391Every product aiming to replace the normal way to eat is destined to fail.Eating for humans is more than just pure nutrient intake like a battery>BEEP BOOP energy deficiency detected! Energy portion ingested! Nutrients deployed!You can see it at the fact how when someone is on a monotonous diet even if in terms of calories sufficient soon all thoughts start circling about food.We have a fine tuned system of receptors in out mouth and nose to analyze the components by taste and things like fattiness etc. And that system wants ACTION! Not tasting anything over time drives people insane.That's why real meals will never be replaceable, you may substitute one meal or the other with a drink. but the next time available it will be a real one again.
>>22045396>Kraft AmericanKraft American what?
>>22045391I had a dream about that once. It was a big hit but super gimmicky.
Food cubes are history. Food tesseracts are where it's at now.
>>22047266This is upsetting
>>22045391they look okay I guess
>>22045391Of course. In concept it's basically pringles or spam,>mash together a blob of this food typeObservant readers will note that>Pringles and spam are popular because they're tasty and really fucking cheap, compared to their real-er cousinsAnd this is where most of these alt-foods suffer, because they're never just trying to make cheap tasty caloric food blobs, rather than cater to the "too much money" anxious professional managerial class who wants a snack before the "not-enough-food-on-its-own" doordash arrives.
