Read what I wrote: a decent meal takes time. Whether you cook it or you go to a restaurant, it takes time. Lots of people do not have time to go out for dinner every day. You can get some fast food, but then Soylent is obviously the healthier choice. There may be some relatively healthy fast food available, but is it right around the corner? And even then, eating the same thing every day is bound to be less balanced than Soylent.

I totally get that people think it's icky. I personally enjoy good food a lot. And even mediocre food, for that matter. But getting it absolutely is a chore sometimes, and I totally get that some people are interested in other options for those days where you don't sit down for a good meal. Although the healthiest option is no doubt to take some time for a quality meal, eat it at the table, rather than the couch, and buy your ingredients fresh at a farmer's market. But in a world of less than perfect meals, Soylent will probably be a positive thing for many.

Every single day, maybe not. But again, really depends where you live. Around where I live, I can reach about 20 very decent restaurants with several kinds of food in a 5 mins walk, and they are cheap enough for me to go there often. And should I want to eat at home without cooking, I can always grab something on the way back from work in the numerous places that sell, freshly prepared, ready to eat dishes. Takes no time at all, at least in my situation. If you need a 20 mins car ride to go to a city center or something, I guess that's a very different issue, though.
