I have to imagine that Soylent's long term vision is to control the entire supply chain.


Vertical integration means owning the farms, production facilities, shipping and distribution, retail fronts, and maybe even operating some form of fast food franchise.

The only thing that could possibly make soylent faster than fast would be drive-thru. If I could order a 24 oz. soylent for $1, instead of a strawberry shake, I could envision a future where I might actually eat soylent more than once a week and across a cumulative duration of longer than 4 weeks per any given year.


Sorry, what? You think Soylent wants to buy a bunch of farms?


Probably, in the long run.
