Why not eat tofu, anon?
>good source of protein
>very flexible, can be used for breakfast lunch or dinner + dessert
>easy to work with, can be marinated for a wide variety of flavors
>very cheap

Yeah, you’re right, you don’t want to consume all that estrogen!
I hope you don’t eat dairy either, that has animal estrogen which can actually be synthesized by the body. But you’re probably too based for that

Every hippy who has ever tried to get me to eat tofu insists it should be eaten on its own, which always makes it taste like a vinyl eraser.
Turns out you're supposed to stew that shit in with whatever scraps of meat your average chinese peasant can afford in order to soak up all the meat flavor and stretch out the meat budget, only then does it taste any good.

tl;dr fucking hippies tried to steer me away from mapo tofu and i will hate them forever.

I marinated some in cajun seasoning + soy sauce and threw it in the oven, and it came out pretty close to chicken. I’d imagine it wouldn’t imitate other meats as well though

I really don't know how to properly utilize it, it makes a shitty substitute for cheese and meat, even if you slather it with flavored soy like soy chorizo.
It doesn't even taste good on it's own because it tastes like nothing and I'd rather put something there that isn't empty calories.

Soy literally causes allergies in people who never had them before, worsens existing allergies, and even gives you new allergies you never had before.
I used to drink that chocolate silk stuff daily. Before then I did not have a peanut allergy and most of my existing allergies were fairly mild. After about a month of drinking that chocolate soy milk I developed a deadly peanut allergy and all my existing allergies got much worse.
Then I read in a medical magazine that soy could worsen allergies. I immediately cut all soy out of my diet and after about a week I could finally eat peanut butter again and all my other allergies went back to their previous levels of annoying. A couple even went away.
Soy is bad for you. It's literally toxic shit.
