Soy Meat Substitute

Q: Response to question 1476. When I was talking abou soy, I didn't mean soy powder. In fact I can't stand that stuff :) It never tastes like it is supposed to. I was referring to those Boca procucts, and other meat substitutes. Some of them have as much as 70% percent of their calories from protien. It also helps that they taste a lot like hamburgers which I love!! And it doesn't have all of the fat adn stuff. I do also eat chicken, tuna, turkey breast, and shrimp often. Thank you for all your help. It is really cool of ou to offer all of this advice!

A: You're welcome! To tell the truth I generally avoid unfermented soy products (such as Boca burgers) but I admit that it's a gray area and more of a personal choice for me. If you are interested in the subject do a web search for 'unfermented soy' and decide for yourself. But that aspect aside you should be fine since you mentioned you get plenty of protein from other foods.
