A few comments from experience. (subscriber for over 18 months)
Cold yes. Warm Soylent is harder to consume. Just below 40*F is recommended.
I little flavoring helps a lot with some variants. On version 1.4 I mixed in a few drops of strawberry syrup into each glass.
Remember you need extra water. The liter of water used in the mix does not count toward your daily needs. An addition liter is required to stay hydrated.
The price. Yes the cost to start seems high but is replaces a lot. It is cheaper than fast food but much more healthy for you. (there was a price cut a few months back)
There was a promised 2 year shelf life for the dry mix, but I have not seen that. The mix I received most recently has a use by date only 5 months from arrival.
and finally, Soylent is not a diet shake. It has fairly high calorie count. it is intended to be a fast, easy, inexpensive, food replacement. But if used to replace fast food you will lose weight and feel better.
