It has been argued that we are actually getting more soy than the Japanese, now, due to soy additives in all kinds of processed foods that aren't very tofu like at all. It has also been suggested that fermented soy (like Japanese miso) is different in its effects.

I know, I know, no citations, but at least wanted to put forth the arguments I've heard as to why the soy the average American is getting is worse and in greater quantities than the average Japanese.

So now you have moved your position from tofu to soy in general and you still don't even present the slightest hint of evidence. You simply say "you've heard arguments". I'm guessing you weren't so concerned over trifles like evidence when you were hearing these arguments. Very insightfull.

Uh, I'm not the one who made the original point about tofu. You should be more careful about paying attention to who made what arguments when replying.

I'm not sure what utility you see in pointing out that I did not present any evidence when I plainly said myself that I am not presenting any evidence.

OK fair enough. I did think you were the same person. However like the first post your post does tend to perpetuate a meme that exists in the absence of evidence or common sense. Without any evidence it falls into the same category as 'Obama is an Ayrab' and for further propagating it you deserve criticism.
