We sort of can, but the substitute sweeteners don’t always taste good to everyone or agree with their system. I’ve been experimenting with a meal replacement product called Soylent and it took a couple weeks for my gut to get used to it. They make bottled shakes and meal bars. For people who have no issues with soy products or allulose sweetener, it’s pretty good.

Mind you, they’re not zero-calorie. That’s not the point. They’re meal replacements, for people who for one reason or another have difficulty eating proper diets. The meal bars are hardly chocolate brownies or cookies, but they taste better than a lot of protein bars I’ve tried, and they’re different from protein bars or protein shakes.

We’re not yet at Star Trek replicator levels of meal composition, where they can manipulate food at the atomic level to make a healthy diet taste like a hot fudge sundae. But we can do a lot more now than we once could to make healthy food that doesn’t taste like a salad.
