I use vanilla soy milk for cereal and to drink, the chocolate is pretty good also...I was NOT pleased with some of the store brands nor would I EVER suggest the plain :shock: :evil:
I eat the beans in the pod as a vegetable like peas or beans *usually packaged as Edamame*
I tried the soy peanut butter...ended up mixing it half and half...still wasn't as good tasting as the "real" thing LMBO
tofu...I love it marinated/seasoned and then fried
Health food depts have a lot of meat substitutes made of soy that are pretty good also.
Bonus:
Hot flashes almost completely gone
Fibro not bad, considering the time of year and what I have been doing
Soy has a lot of protein
Soy has been said to lower cholestrol
Depending on what you buy and how it is prepared it can be a low calorie food, too.
