Hurlshort Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Yep, I have a soy intolerance. I can eat it, but too much messes with me. I look for stuff cooked in other types of oils.
ComradeYellow Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Soy is such middle class liberal garbage anyway. I got a feeling both rich people and Joe peasant snort coke and drink canola fried cattle milk like the best of them.

It just puts a real damper into the going vegan to save the planet spin. Soya plants are great- easy to grow, quick growing, versatlile, don't need much water, not much in the way of pests, nitrogen fixing- the problems are all with industrial farming since you end up with lots of soy specific pests, lots of topsoil loss as well as lots of forest clearance etc. GMO soy is pretty crap too. Yeah, it won't turn the frogs gay or anything, but all glyphosate resistance does is encourage significantly more use of herbicide- why Monsanto, makers of Roundup, developed it in the first place, duh- and more monoculture. So you end up with massive use of pesticide and massive use of herbicide in most commercial soy growing projects often with steady soil degradation despite soy being a legume.
majestic Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 Cantina's having their usual summer menu, which is great. Today was tuna salad or pizza, so I went with the tuna salad. Can't eat a pepperoni pizza for lunch. I mean, I totally could, but not if I'm expected to be productive afterwards. 1 No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.
Guard Dog Posted July 26, 2021 Posted July 26, 2021 I’ve had a serious craving for Japanese food lately. There’s no good Japanese places within 500 miles of here. In fact the last place I got good food was actually in Japan. Sometimes I wish I was sitting on the wood picnic tables outside Mi House at the foot of Mt Futenma on Okinawa eating a big plate of Yaka Soba and sashimi and drinking a big steel can of Orion. 3 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell

I spent my nine months in the army and hated every last day of it.
