small portable device (vacume cleaner size) that can detect soy products through a rather small nozzle. soy products are rampant, test your food before you eat it.

I dunno, might be a tape of Liberace. <grin!> |

My first reaction to this is that it was a stupid idea. I mean, there's nothing wrong with soybeans. But apparently it's a fairly common allergy, so the idea isn't as stupid as it sounds. |
|
|
As a person with many many allergies, I don't like the idea of tricking people into eating something they otherwise wouldn't. I thought vegetarians/vegans were so because of ethical reasons. I'm in favour of the tofu detector. |
|
|
I like it! Have a croissant (but you'd better get busy developing your detector; there's no telling what's inside). |
|
|
I personally only eat free-range tofu. The way they process the poor critters at the tofu abbatoirs is horrifying... |
|
|
Right on, Monty! That soy crap is packed with female plant hormones. |

No sprouting breasts for me! |
|
|
Was that sprouting breasts or breasts like sprouts? |
|
|
If the point is just to avoid Tofu because of the taste... too bad! I mean it just tastes like nothing. If an allergy is the problem, I'm very sympathetic though. But wouldn't it just be safer to avoid the relevent types of food entirely? I mean Soy is used in everything, in most Asian cuisine, for example. |
|
|
Neither taste nor allergy is the issue with me, spaceman spiff. Rather, I don't want a product used in lieu of hormone replacement therapy for post-menapausal women put into my masculine body. |
|
|
Hence, the "no sprouting breasts for me!" comment. |

Hey, what is this doing in the vegetarianism category?
Omnivores can and do eat tofu, too. |
