as i am working on my diet i was thinking about replacing meat with soy products what do you think of soy?
When I read this I thought of this outrageous article published by World Net Daily. http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=53327 Didn't you know that soy makes you gay? ;-) ROTFL!
I'm in two minds on soy. On one hand, it's an effective protein substitute that can be prepared in delicious and fun ways (though poorly-processed soy is disgusting, be warned). On the other, it's loaded with harmful chemicals and hormones (especially for guys) and growing it is an ecological nightmare.
Both my husband and I are intolerant to dairy product, and my husband can't eat red meat either because of his irritation bowel syndrom. We are using soy on a regular basis to replace red meat and dairy product like yoghurts and cream. It took us a little while to get used to it, but it's been nearly 2 years now, and our health condition definitly improved.
i think soy tastes disgusting, but if you mix it in with food you already like (im talking something VERY flavourful) its not so bad. soy will soak up the flavour from other foods, its just the texture that might not be so appealing. and like someone mentioned above, soy does have its downside when consumed by males.
For folks with lactose issues, it's quite lovely! I mostly cook with soymilk, but don't drink plain or anything. And really do not like 'soyjoy' bars. Ick. haha.
I think its good. I used to have an allergy to something in milk, it wasnt a lactose intolerance, something else in the milk that I cant quite remember, so did my brother. So we used to just drink soy milk, so did everyone else, because it was easier, except my mum, she hates the stuff. To be honest, I dont understand how people drink dairy milk, it tastes like water and baby powder. (Not that I know what baby powder tastes like.) I only really like the milk though, a lot of other soy products arent the greatest things I have ever eaten.
Well I am a vegetarian so I have tried soy a bunch of times. Depending on how it is made and flavored it can be really yummy. Some soy things I have tried tasted awful though
Soy is deliscious, but its been discovered that its bad for you :/, and I'm thinking of becoming a Vege lol
I don't like it because I'm extremely violently allergic to it, to the point where it doesn't make it down my gullet
Oh so sorry to here that make sure you have a medi alert or some thing like it to let people know about it what you cant speak for yourself
