    Have you considered applying for a sales representative at the company? The best pitch comes from the person that knows the product, inside out.

    There is the cultural difference I can’t get past: yes, cooking may very well be a chore but I would more quickly change my entire diet than resort to substituion mixes.

    Nothing replaces the contact with real food items. The smells, the textures, the colours, the flavours. The pleasure that comes from it.

    I can be very pragmatic and utilitarian towards what I eat, borderline spartan, but a mix is not food and not even very sick I will consider it as such. It’s fuel, sustenance, not food. I could live off it but, again, I would hate every moment of it.

    I sincerely admire your apparent indiference towards relying on that mix. I would rely on it to keep me alive, in a serious emergency, sure. But as a means to get to an end, not the end itself.
