Are you allergic to nuts too?
Nope. Just soy.

Nope. Just soy.
The amount of soy we consume as a nation/species scares the crud out of me because of all the phytoestrogens. I am convinced it would be better to avoid it altogether, but also damn near impossible. I mean, studies show that babies drinking soy formula consume the equivalent of several birth control pills a day. that's insane.
I just realized that rtq and E have the same initials (though probably not middle). But his is definitely not to attract Canadians.
You could choose a myriad of things about our diets to be scared of.

Well, we can't have our babies having babies.
Chic and Matt,
After much deliberation and soul searching, I want to inform you that I'm going to pass on the rice cooker. Thanks anyways though.
you'll be sad when we sell it for $5 to someone at 2pm on Sunday.

Exactly. There have been studies linking it to cancers as well, but those are often debated.
We were in Trader Joe's the other day wandering aimlessly in the produce section trying to decide what to make for dinner. One of the girls comes up to my husband and begins making boxed dinner suggestions, which we don't eat and I won't touch with a 10 ft pole. She was praising how there are no additives in them and they are "super healthy". He looked at every box and every single one of them contained soy and most of it was the the hydrogenated soy.
Come on. Let's at least admit where the real problem is.
For reals, what's the problem with soy besides the phytoestrogens and allergies?
