People are trying this but it has a number of problems. First, we enjoy eating food. Our brains literally give us a big endorphin rush when we eat tasty food. Why are we trying to deprive ourselves of that? Second, our digestive systems are not designed for that. They are designed to take nutrients from food. This is the issue with fortified foods and vitamin supplements. There is too much in them to be absorbed by our bodies.
