Soy: good, or bad?

[shootingstar]

Hmmm. If tofu was so horrible then we would have an epidemic of breast cancers among women in the countries that created tofu in the lst place --China, Japan..huge populations who have eaten the stuff.


Consider this:

Tofu made with least amount of chemicals. No preservatives. Fresh tofu must be eaten within days. People made tofu...at home.
Some of the stuff I see in stores has more chemicals than necessary.

And please don't get mixed up with soy sauce. It's the high salt content to be alert about. So always buy low sodium. The bottle label must say this. Not "light" soy sauce. It must be "low sodium or low salt". I'm horrified by Food Network channel,when chefs dump in tons of soy sauce.

Think of it this way: soy sauce is like eating olives with abit of the preserved salt/oil.

To put soy sauce in stir fry dish to serve 4 people, I put no more than 1 tablespoon --or alot less --depends if there is a blend of meat and veggies. If it's just veggies, less soy sauce.
