I don’t get it
There was a movie in the 1970s about a dystopian future where there was not enough food to go around. The main food company was named Soilent.
So it was coming out with a new product that would end hunger. It was made out of algae, and it was called Soilent Green.
Charleston Heston was the hero of the movie and he broke into the factory and figured out that it was actually made from dead people.
Thank you :)
And holy shit what a movie…
The movie was called the ten commandments btw.
"Get your paws off me, you damn dirty god!"
That man? Abraham Lincoln.
It was spelled Soylent, just like this product.
And it's made of soy and lentils, hence the name. At least it was in the novel the film was (loosely) based on.
And the movie added the "Green" for some reason.
IIRC there were two variants in the movie and the "green" variant based on humans was added as a new product because the production couldn't keep up with population increase.
