It may come in one flavo(u)r in the movie, but I know that we could make more. What flavo(u)r are you?


I also leave you with a riddle.

You know his name from long ago, with hair so red it looked like fire. He soared in the air, but always towards the left. Like a speeding arrow. Now you know him by another, he could be anybody's brother. Check my posts and arrange the white text, and you'll know who is who.

I dont get this post

I get the riddle even less

What flavo(u)r of soylent green would you be? It's pretty |self|-explanatory.

Dog.

It may come in one flavo(u)r in the movie, but I know that we could make more. What flavo(u)r are you?

Why not both? You know his name from long ago, with hair so red it looked like fire. He soared in the air, but always towards the left. Like a speeding arrow. Now you know him by another, he could be anybody's brother. Check my posts and arrange the white text, and you'll know who is who.

Hmm. I wonder what the Glitzy would say about your "flavor?" :D

Neo K, I officially fucking hate you. I have an essay to do, but I know now my inner (and largely outer) nerd is going to have me sitting at the computer for the next three days trying to figure out this dumb riddle thing. Bastard.

Beer 'n' bacon.

Vegetarian beans and rice. Just to fuck with people's heads.

BRUSSEL SPROUTS, then no one would want to eat it, except those kids that get told to eat it by their damn mothers

Ouch. Painful childhood memories?

What flavo(u)r are you?

Ass and hooker spit.

Riddle answer: The Sun, Sol.

You should spoilerize that.

No, no, no, green *is* the flavor. Seriously. Soylent came in three flavors that were mentioned.* One of the flavors was "green", the others mentioned were "red" and "yellow".
The TV Commercial in the movie went something like this "Try all of Soylent's delicious flavors: Soylent red, Soylent yellow, and new, delicious, Soylent green." So the question answers itself - if I were Soylent green, I'd automatically be green flavor.

Wrong.

I'm clueless as to the riddle but I'd be Sweet N' Sour!!!
(15% Sweet / 85% Sour)

The answer is clear, you knew him well. But now he lies in Posters Hell.

Black pepper and lead.

Oh, oh, I know!

Beat me to it. :p

You got one part of it right.

Beat me to it. :p

And I beat him to it. ;) (Just in case my reference to him wasn't clear enough.)

Sweet & Spicy BBQ flavour.

Honey...cuz I am sweet. ;)

okay maybe not.

you all taste alarmingly similar to Spaam luncheon meat.

Ah ain't touchin' dat one! Nu uh! :D

What flavour would I want to be? Tofu-flavour. Or water-flavour. But realistically people would just bite into my soylenty goodness and say "Eugh, tastes like.....simony." If, that is, simony does indeed have a distinct taste.

Guinness Flavor, just mix with alcohol. :D

Habanero whiskey

Ape.

Chemically I have no choice but to taste like pork.

Guess.

I'd be whiskey flavored!

hehe (http://www.hlj.me.uk/Best%20Of%20Whose%20Line%20Is%20It%20Anyway_0002.wmv) :P

I prefer Albino Midget flavor.

Beer 'n' bacon.


wow!
i thought i was the only one....beat me to it.

i do have just a hint of captain morgan though...just a hint mind you.

Guess.

How about I taste you and then guess?

No Jesus f;lavo(u)r?

Yum, people.

I'd taste like Rossese di Dolceacqua or Castagnaccio.

Please tell me that I'm reading this right as sweetwater something and chestnutty goodness and that it's actually a delicious Italian dessert, and not some more tofu albino midget?

People :D

People :D
That's, that's.... like mouse-flavoured cat food. :p


For myself I'd say Tiramisu.

I would taste like a Night of Passion. For those not in the know, a Night of Passion is a cocktail, 1 part vodka and 9 parts more vodka.

I'll be the UK School Canteen flavour. Synonymous with "perspex" and "cardboard".

Also, I haven't seen the film but I cheated by looking it up on Wikipedia :D...

"Soylent Green is... tasty! Uh, and people too."

Please tell me that I'm reading this right as sweetwater something and chestnutty goodness and that it's actually a delicious Italian dessert, and not some more tofu albino midget?

The first is a sweet red wine that is made from the general area I was born and raised in and the second is a chestnutty goodness from the area I was raised in. So, good guess .:p

Glad you clarified that, because it sure sounds like something right out of this (http://www.refused-classification.com/images/CS1/ElectricBlue/RCElectricBlue008.jpg) .

Eh, must be the Italian genes. *preens* Because it sure isn't any actual knowledge of Italian :p

Tea.

Kiwi bird.

Yeah, you and a lot of others on this thread. As I said above, GREEN is the flavor of Soylent green.

People just don't get it. To put it in clearer terms, the question is the equivilant of asking "if you were vanilla ice cream, what flavor of ice cream would you be?" :headbang: (I feel a bit like Thorn at the end of the movie. The people answering different flavors are being just as stupid as those in the movie were when he warned them.)

Are you asking which flavour we would actually be, or which we would prefer to be?

Anyway here are my answers:

I. Alright, I suppose I have to be "green" flavoured.

II. It is often said that everything meaty tastes like chicken, so maybe that is more appropriate. A friend of mine who dissected deceased folks while in nursing school now has an aversion to bacon, though, so apparently that is right.

III. To expand on answer I. and the ongoing notes that one must be "green" flavoured, I contend that this flavour is the mint used in flavouring chocolate.

IV. With my ultimate preference given the right of way, I pick lemon and brown sugar.

So I am green flavored.

But I should be Necrotic Flesh slavored.

Yeah, you and a lot of others on this thread. As I said above, GREEN is the flavor of Soylent green.
Except that Green is a color, which one perceives with one's eyes, as opposed to a flavor, which one perceives with one's tongue. Therefore, while "Green" may well be a variety of Soylent, what, exactly, "Green" tastes like is left to the imagination, and my imagination has chosen vodka.
Congratulations, thinking all that through just cost me 10 IQ points, jack ass.

my flavour would be Red

(and I know my mothers putting sleeping pills in my T Bones)

bitter. Very cold and bitter.

beer flavour?

Aw jeez people, watch the movie... Soylent yellow is made from soy beans, the 'soylent' name comes from this. Soylent green was supposed to be made from seaweed, hence the green color. And of course they find out that it's really made from people...

So I guess you could say soylent green is seaweed flavored people....?

Green flavour! Yum!

Like green slurpees.

I guess I would be a very salty (taste of sweat) Neopolitian, because there's going to be more than just me in that bar.

Asa Foetida, maybe?

Asa Foetida, maybe?
:eek:

Well, I guess as long as don't smell like it, too, you'll be alright. *shudders*

I'm hash flavoured. Actually, my lungs aren't suggested for eating... roll 'em up and smoke them. :p

I'm rocky mountain oyster-flavored. :)

Aw jeez people, watch the movie... Soylent yellow is made from soy beans, the 'soylent' name comes from this. Soylent green was supposed to be made from seaweed, hence the green color. And of course they find out that it's really made from people...

So I guess you could say soylent green is seaweed flavored people....?
What?! It was made of people!?!
Soylent Green is made out of people! They're making our food out of people! Next thing they'll be breeding us like cattle for food! We're eating ourselves!!!


(btw it was plankton, not seaweed. and great move in spoiling the ending for anyone who has yet to watch it)

Kiwifruit. Just to be slightly patriotic for once.

Eh, must be the Italian genes. *preens* Because it sure isn't any actual knowledge of Italian :p

lol, Well your Italiandar is right on.

The taste may still be affected by whatever the people had been eating. Kind of like how grain-fed beef is supposed to taste different than grass-fed.

I think my soylent green made from me, would taste suspiciously like peanut butter and root beer.

(btw it was plankton, not seaweed. and great move in spoiling the ending for anyone who has yet to watch it)

Indeed. That movie sucks if you know the ending.

Except that Green is a color, which one perceives with one's eyes, as opposed to a flavor, which one perceives with one's tongue. Therefore, while "Green" may well be a variety of Soylent, what, exactly, "Green" tastes like is left to the imagination, and my imagination has chosen vodka.

Blaim it on the movie, not me. That's where they say it's a flavor.

And as far as the spoiler goes, pop culture's pick up on the original advertising campaign already did that. As you can see from all the posters who assumed it's supposed to be a color and not a flavor.
