Soy can be used in many things and in many forms. Here is a list from Dr. Kaayla T. Daniel who has been studying the effects of soy for many years:

easylife54 | I haven't read the other posts - but DON'T get me started on soy :o) As far as I'm concerned and some of the naturalists out there it is the absolute worst thing for us in the amounts we are eating. Me, I was a vegetarian for 3 years and ate soy and it ruined by thyroid - that's right - destroyed it - and soy can and will do that - you can read up about it on line.

 M.O.M doesn't generally tout low-fat packaged foods. We tend to go for the real thing and simply eat less of it. But sometimes there is a low-fat product that actually has real flavor. Because for us taste, flavor, and enjoying food is what eating is all about.
These organic, dairy-free Creamy Fudge Bars are just the thing to get you through a sweet tooth attack. And at only 90 calories (and 45mg sodium) they can certainly be a once-in-a-while snack.
So enjoy So Delicious.
