I dream with a human kibble too. The closest things I've found is Soylent and it's competitors.
I actually have quite enjoyed Soylent!
...
However, it's designed for people with normal metabolisms and digestive systems.
My metabolism is giga fucked forever and I've basically already consumed an entire lifetime's worth of carbohydrates. So carbs make me sick. Joint pain, inflammation, swelling in the extremities of my limbs, fatigue, trouble sleeping... I know it's carbs because these symptoms stop when I stop eating carbohydrates.
They're just really gods damned hard to avoid.
Sorry to hear that! But yeah, I enjoy it too. It took a couple of tries to get used to the soy flavor, but after that, it's great! If I'm too depressed or lazy to feed myself I can just make a glass of sweet vanilla-dlavored dystopian slop and that's it. It's great mixed with fruit and yogurt too.
Maybe i'm just not familiar enough with soy to identify it specifically but to me the stuff always tasted like ... I mean I guess kinda like the milk left after you finish a bowl of cereal except extra rich, with the consistency of a milk shake that melted. But it was definitely tasty though. When I was drinking it, at the time, I looked forward to it. Actually hit the spot. It was like my body could actually taste the vitamins it was fortified with, in a good way. It was the flavor of "I was missing something but I found it right here."
I think i'd like to look into if there are ketogenic versions. As much as I like Soylent, it'd have to be only on my cheat days, and my cheat days are reserved for more memorable experiences. A zero-carb nutritional baseline I can rely on would just be nice, y'know?
I've been happy with Huels hot and savory pastas, the quinoa ones aren't as good in my opinion without doctoring them up with some extras. It takes a few tries to nail down how to scoop the proper amounts of powder and pasta from the bag, and then the amount of water to use, but once I did that, it's about as good as leftovers from a restaurant.
I make my own. Pasta and rice, some veggies, maybe a bit of protein thrown in. I like it because I can just shovel it into my mouth instead of having to cut or eat it in small bites.
Oh yeah! I've heard there is a really bigg DIY human kibble community too. But if u can barely feel myself, I'n definitely not functional enough to DIY it xD
