Total meal replacement with Soylent and other alternatives

Looking for a complete replacement of all my meals using Soylent or other similar products.

Most of these companies allow you to buy their products cheaper if you "subscribe", which means they periodically send you more of the same product. Since you can cancel whenever you want, including (presumably) right after buying for the first time, the prices in this post include that subscription discount.

A "meal" for the purposes of this post is one fifth of the reference intake (RI), this is, around 20% of the necessary calories, macros, vitamins, and minerals that you need each day.

Soylent

Doesn't ship to Europe.

Joylent, now Jimmy Joy

Their only product is called Plenny Shake v3.0. 

Price is €1.43 per meal, that is €214.8 per month.

Huel

Their cheapest product is called Huel Essential. 

Price is €1.29 per meal, that is €193.5 per month. If you buy over €100 worth of products, you get a 10% discount: that's €1.17 per meal, or €175.65 per month. Unbeatable. (Cheapest option in this post: you can stop reading here!)

They also have another product called Huel Powder, which seems their main offering. Price is €1.91 per meal which is €286.5 per month.

So what's the difference? Judge for yourself:

I suppose you could add protein powder to your meals, but then it would be more expensive and more calorific.

Other alternatives

These are more expensive.

• Bertrand (which sounds French but is actually German) sells "pouches" which contain half a kilogram and are good for one day worth of meals. The cheapest one costs €12.66, which means you would pay €379.8 per month.
• Jake Shake: each shake costs €2.60, but those shakes are not "meals" since they contain one third of the reference intake instead of one fifth. I find that to be way more reasonable than eating five times a day, but what do I know. You would pay €234 per month.
• KetoOne which is sold out and looks to me like it's never going to restock.
• ManaPowder MK8 is sold for €1.54 per meal which is €231 per month.
• Queal Steady sold for €1.62 per meal which is €243 per month.

DIY

Here we enter the twilight zone of DIY recipes. There is a website called Complete Foods, formerly "DIY Soylent", where users can post their own recipes.

This one would be an example: NerdShake.

What's the issue here? All the popular recipes are almost 10 years old (seems like everybody left the site when the Soylent fad passed), so most ingredients linked are unavailable. You can find other ingredients to substitute them with, but your replacements won't have the same exact nutritional profile and you will die of scurvy.
