Made some edits to People Chow. Also, WOW this stuff is YUMMY!
---original description---
Of all the People Chow recipes I've developed this is by FAR the best! It's got a smooth, velvety texture, a very mild flavor with a hint of tortilla chips, and every time I finish a glass I want more! I think we've finally nailed this recipe and I want to thank the community for all their valuable input in making People Chow 3.x so darn awesome!
Also: Check out that daily cost!

CHANGELOG 3.0.1 - "Tortilla Perfection!"
Updated fiber totals for masa harina
Added 5g masa harina
Subtracted 2g soybean oil
Additional details can be found on the People Chow blog: http://www.people-chow.com/
CHANGELOG 3.0.0 - "Tortilla Perfection!"
Replaced Harina P.A.N. with masa harina
Added 30g carbohydrate base (masa harina)
Removed the almond meal
Added 7g whey protein isolate
Added 14g soybean oil
CHANGELOG 2.3.0 - "Cheap!"
Added 10g masa
Removed 12g protein. (You can safely add lots more for weightlifting purposes.)
Removed 1g vitamin powder
Calories now exactly 2000. (Just a happy coincidence.)
Turns out methionine and cysteine should be used directly for the sulfur requirement, as it is sulfur-containing amino acids (SAAs) that are necessary, and not elemental sulfur.
CHANGELOG 2.3.0RC1 - "Name Pending!"
Added nutrition information to harina masa
Removed potassium chloride
Removed non-aluminum baking powder
More changes pending ...
CHANGELOG 2.2.2 - "Make your farts sparkle!"
Cheekier tagline. Open to suggestions.
CHANGELOG 2.2.1 - "Now with reasonable Niacin!"
Added sulfur calculation from L-Methionine and L-Cysteine to the Whey Protein Isolate and almond meal. According to Sintax at http://discourse.soylent.me/t/sulfur-in-cysteine-and-methionine/10626/5?u=maxk we're looking at 0.21 x mass of methionine + 0.2666... x mass of cysteine to calculate sulfur available from these ingredients.
Removed MSM to compensate for added sulfur from the previous change.
One can only presume the lower sulfur will result in a person's farts being less unpleasant.
CHANGELOG 2.2.0 - "Now with reasonable Niacin!"
Reduced almond meal to 45g
Increased soybean oil to 38g
Increased baking powder to 5g
Reduced niacin to < 35g.
This was probably unnecessary, but had the pleasant effect of making all the fields go green. Also, it's slightly cheaper.
CHANGELOG 2.1.0
Reduced Mega Men supplement to 24g
Increased soybean oil to 37g
Reduced price by $0.51/day
CHANGELOG 2.0.2
Removed the coconut flour
There was an error in the masa fiber totals. After correcting the error, the total fiber was quite high and supplementation in the form of coconut flour was no longer necessary.
Adjusted other ingredients to replace missing nutrients
