Why do we say SOY milk?

[Rocky Raab]

Jon, ya wanna really twist their minds? Call it "bean blood." Hey, it's the circulatory fluid of a living thing isn't it?

Ya mean they take those living beans and crush them until their blood runs out? And then you DRINK it? EWWWWwwwwww!

Unless it comes from some itsy-bitsy little bean udder, IT AIN'T MILK.

Btw, tofu or bean curd is flavorless served alone. But it does take on the flavor of any liquid it's cooked with. In some things, it's not bad at all. The texture may be a bit off-putting to some, but in soups and such it's great. Really. No, I'd never pick a tofu steak in place of the real thing, just saying that tofu as its place. (OK, all you wits can now chime in with "place" suggestions, LOL!)
