imagine the if there was ever shortage of food... One group will be making the shit, while the other is eating it. And then... alternate.

I like how they're flaunting it as "healthy" because it's low in animal fat, yet it's 25% carbs. I see we're still lying about that shit.

Soylent Shit is more like it.

There is no way I could eat that knowing where it came from.

Now this is an interesting proposition:

what if someone fed you this, under false pretenses or without ever explaining what it actually was, and you liked it?
And then, after you exclaim how tasty the beef patty was, they then told you it was recycled fecal matter?

Your reaction?

This is mostly interesting because it gets right down to using Basic parts to make complex food. I doubt sewage solids will ever be viable, but there are other ways to get the ingredients(75% sureish) and/or this could be used for specific situations.
