Dude, there's even a full nutrient solution that they use for intubated patients, that's exactly the same as this, I think the most popular brand is Nutrison. It even comes in different varieties tailored for different kinds of patients and conditions. This guy has thought of nothing new, we've had nutritionally complete liquid diets since the late 60s or so.
And he's never going to really get anywhere with this, even if he doesn't give up on it. He's just going to be some lone kook, telling people about how he doesn't eat, except he kinda does, but he won't mention that. A few Alt-med woo types will go for it, and likely he'll be a woo-slinging jackass in a few years, trying to get rich, and probably getting caught out and laughed out of prominence after he gets caught eating a sack of cheeseburgers.
Screw you guys, I want to try this. One of my pet peeves is how much time I have to spend prepping food and eating it. Replacing that shit with nutrient compact liquids would be awesome.

We still can't go to the grocery store and buy something like this, can we? Is this because nobody wants it, or for some other reason?

You can buy Ensure and similar products in a grocery store or pharmacy. And you can literally live on the stuff.
It's probably because dealing with the exact same flavor profile every day for years on end will drive you crazy. Trust me, you like food.
Although, if we could get balanced nutrient beverages to taste like anything...

The food industry has discovered loads of relatively calorie-free flavorings, haven't they? Make it taste like vanilla or something, possibly water it down, add a lot of caffeine and that becomes perfect for long work-sessions.
Makes sense. I lost weight (or, rather, didn't gain any while I was growing) from an appetite suppressant in my ADD medication. That was a pain in the ass, but if you're looking for that then it's worth a while.
its not an appetite suppressant its just a chemical that numbs your mouth a bit, so food becomes more bland and you end up tricking yourself into not eating as much. I think ADD meds have a chemical that physically reduces your cravings for food.
I was trying to find the article where the CEO suggests that their product shouldn't change the name, but that society should change the name of AIDS. That of course didn't happen. I finally got a reference from the podcast I heard it from but they inform me you need a Time Magazine subscription to view the full article and I don't have that.
EDIT: Actually it was changed to an appetite suppressant eventually, but was originally what I said. So nevermind haha.
I woke up and my cat was like giving my arm a full fledged cleaning. Sure he's licked me before but usually only once or twice and moves on. He was really scrubbing down my arm.

Guys help me with school. My Sci-Fi teacher wants to know: "To what extent are these plausibility devices dependent on the frame tale structure and on the opportunities it presents to prod us to read ahead for solutions to problems or to use characters as foils who ask the necessary questions?"

I could but I wouldn't.
Also, call it a hunch, but I get the vibe he thinks this makes him better than everyone else.

Can't wait to be a brain in a jar.
I also like sleeping a bit, but not nearly as much. If I could get a satisfying night's sleep with a pill and two hours, I'd be happy as a clam.

You want to eat food. Trust me on this one.
It's not bad - it just tastes, well, like a nutrient supplement. Slightly chalky and...manufactured. Also like chocolate.
If this was my sole source of nutrition, I'd go nuts.
