So - soy is bad for you too, if you don't eat enough meat and dairy products with it. I think that's what it said. So vegetarians that eat it are slowly starving themselves of important nutrients thanks to compounds in the bean.

Damn it. Soy tastes so niiiice. I like to have it in a nice soy sauce/honey/balsamic vinegar marinade, grilled under the flame. It's like crumpets but not so fatty! I just had a slab of it then. :T Oh well.

There's a song by the Corries that reminds me of such a topic. Used to crack me up when I was a kid. We'd listen to it in the car when we'd go camping. It's called "The Food Blues."

I wanted to paste the lyrics here but I can't find them anywhere. The song starts with the protagonist of the tale going to a restaurant and ordering a steak. The waiter informs him that it's fatty, bad for him, and full of steroids and so forth. As the singer goes to ask for something else, the waiter launches into how bad every single food is. Fish has mercury in it, cheese has cholesterol, it's bad for your heart. So are eggs, everything. After a wonderfully rhyming and melodramatic listing of what all the foods will do to you, the poor singer asks for a glass of water.

"That's no good it's got carcinogens in it!"

So the singer ups and leaves, and says that he's never touched any of the things that the waiter mentioned, but lives fine, because the waiter never mentioned beer, whisky, and red, red wine.

Oh well, ye hae to hear it.
