That's already covered. Someone managed to patent the idea of fortified Nutella.

Been there. Did that. Moved on. Grew Up.
We could also feed the world by simply distributing the food that we let rot because it isn't perfect enough or to prop up commodity prices.
Haitians don't want our feed corn.
Although I could see you forcing it on yourself strangely enough.
Just the necessary clue to eat your greens with some fat puts even the "low fat" non vegan dietary fad into the "too hard to be sustainable" category. Anything that requires the consumer to have any sort of clue is doomed to increase the general malnutrition level of the population.
It doesn't even have to be a diet for rich political extremists.
People write entire books about this kind of problem.
The heuristic "eat a little bit of everything in moderation" is a much more viable approach.
Viable diets exist within an entire cultural framework that takes the guesswork and research out of not hurting yourself. Anything else is just another variation on fad diets we were told to avoid in our youth.
Ironically, something that looks like a cracker would probably be a much better option. That's a much more portable approach that doesn't require extra resources when eating in the field. Armies have even used this sort of concept for their field rations.
Something that requires mixing assumes infastructure and resources that may not exist.
Plus everyone knows that real Soylent looks like crackers...
Don't kid yourself.
Both of those options are like "I'd rather sit at home and puke and vomit".
Although the Soylent option still fails based on price.
You could refute that trivially by clearly stating what problem it actually solves. Yet you chose not to do that.
Even if I were a normal healthy person, all veganism would get me is a nutritional deficiency.
Although I'm with the guy that rightly pointed out that these cows would still be a problem if we left things "au naturel" since bison covered the states that now grow corn for cattle feed.
The vegans are advocating genocide of one form or another.
Except fascism and communism don't generate better outcomes. They just lead to more corruption and less effective outcomes.
This is why American had guns and butter and the Soviets just had guns.
No, not really. What the FAA has to say is really meaningless. The relevant trial court judge has all of the real power (and real say) here.
Yes. Just decide suddenly to stop using the monopoly that has had a choke hold on the industry for 30 years. That may well be longer than you've even been around.
Gamers don't actually like Windows. They just tolerate it for the ecosystem.
So why don't you go fight some of those battles and let these guys fight this one, hmm?
Well, no one with any sense in IT goes anywhere near this close to the bleeding edge. This thing as all things similarly new should be relegated for testing and experimentation.
Although my own personal opinion is that I feel sorry for Windows users...
Mandated insurance makes no sense. It's not sufficient to cover anything but the most trivial accident. Compared to the costs and risks involved it's a completely token gesture.
