Anybody knows if the soy used to produce Soylent is a GMO?

You can ask them specifically about the soy through their support, if you like.
Soylent was originally touted as a meal replacement but I (and others) have found that it works best as a "plan B" to nutrition. It changes the way you look at food if you always have an option to just get the nutrition you need quickly and easily: a lot of meals you'd normally skip you don't, and a lot of meals you eat that are less than nutritious you can either opt-out of or can supplement with proper nutrition wi…
So, here's a question; If you're using it as a supplement rather than a total meal replacement, why spend the exorbitant amount for Soylent specifically when you could get 90% of the way by getting some whey, mixing in a bit of cheap oil, and taking a multivitamin?
I drink 500 calories and 42 grams of protein upon waking, and found that it increases my ability to fight urges to binge throughout the day. I'll often have another 500 calorie shot of Soylent around 4 o'clock so in a couple of hours when I have to decide on real dinner food, I'm in a good place to eat sensibly. I'm very excited at the trend of meal replacements, it's an indispensable tool in managing my addiction and I'm down 20lbs since January just as a side effect.

For the lecithin? Who knows, probably not. Of all the ingedients in Soylent, why are you interested in almost the last ingredient on the list? https://soylent-production-herokuapp-com.global.ssl.fastly.n...
It's not unreasonable to assume that "Soylent" contains lots of soy.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Maybe because it's included in the product name? It's not unreasonable to assume that "Soylent" contains lots of soy.
Fortunately neither is true.

I found myself using Soylent as a "plan B" and drinking it when I'd normally skip a meal. Within the first two weeks of drinking Soylent I gained five pounds. I've never gained five pounds in the course of two weeks. It turns out skipping those meals was keeping my weight stable. I'm now careful to skip the meals I normally would and now use Soylent to replace the occasional meal I'd otherwise eat.
