Well partially perhaps. At least now I know he's referring to a film,
but I still don't understand the reference. Perhaps there's some
cannibalism in it? The link doesn't give me a hint of any though.

From the site : "a revolutionary and needed new foodstuff has an
horrific origin".

And, on clicking more : "... He soon stumbles across the real source
of Soylent Green, which is not soy beans or plankton any more."

I'm sure that's enough of a hint.

Prior to this, the _only_ reference I'd ever seen to Soylent Green was
that someone's recently started posting here under that name.

I _still_ don't "get it" but as you point out, it's probably not worth
explaining.
