Re: tofu- good , bad or ugly?

I have read a whole bunch of stuff regarding how unhealthy soy products are for humans. A local health food store here in my area won't sell anything made from soy except miso, they believe that strongly about it. I skimmed a whole folder of articles on the subject in their book section a few months ago. Next time I'm there I will check it out and see if I can give you a reference or sum it up in a nutshell. It sounds like the soy industry is similar to the dairy industry in their marketing and making us think this is good for us. I've also heard that American soy is different genetically than Japanese soy, which is supposed to have so many health properties. The Japanese eat it in small quantaties, though, and really just tofu from what I've heard, not soy milk, etc. I would do an internet search on the subject - I bet there will eventually be reports coming out about its unhealthy properties, just as there was with dairy.
