    Default Re: the most dangerous food for men

    Personally I try to avoid most soya products due to the blatent hypocrisy involved in their production, marketing and consumption. They are mostly consumed by vegetarians - but they they are often manufactured, coloured, flavoured and texturised, to resemble meat products. I find these "textured soya protein" products quite frankly disgusting.

    TSP products are supposed to be a better alternative to destroying forests to raise cattle - yet just as many, if not more, forest is destroyed to grow soya bean.

    However, most soya bean doesn't go to make veggie products. The majority is used in low grade meat products such as burgers and sausages to add the texture that they would otherwise lack. Another major product is soya flour which is now found in a lot of bread and cakes among other things.

    It's the concentrated and processed soya products that are doing the damage overall. Soy Sauce and Tofu have been around for over 2000 years, so it's evident that the modern processing of soya into these so called "textured proteins" and other products is the real issue here.
