As a thirty-four year lacto vegetarian (and PETA hater), I'm not a fan of all the fake soy stuff. I read somewhere that those products and much of the research supporting them were created to find a profitable use for the remnants of soy oil production. There are dozens of delicious high protein nuts, legumes, and grains to choose from, why go for fake processed food?

For all those berating the ethical aspect of vegetarianism, I'd point out that we all make ethical choices about what we'll eat. Humans are made by God out of meat, too, but few would eat one. Few would eat a chimp. Why? Because they are too highly evolved, and we don't want to kill them. Indians put cows in that category, as Americans do dogs and cats. Vegetarians draw the line at animals. What's so weird about that?
