on Soy Yogart...

I read a article called "Soy yogurt could help control diabetes" the other day that asserted "eating soy yogurt" will help diabetics by lowering their blood sugar. I tried a small container (6 oz) of a Strawberry/Vinalla flavoured soy yogart this afternoon. It looks horrible but actually tasted good. The article didn't state the minimum daily dosage. Given the container I ate cost 99¢, I don't know if the $693/week will be worth it. However, since there was only one other container in the cooler at the 14th Street Dillions, I don't think this'll be a problem

I looked up the recipe for soy yogart from my copy of "Sailing The Farm". Then, I sniffed the little bit of milk we had in the fridge, tasted it (it hadn't really started going bad) and fired up a batch of home made milk yogert.

I've found my raw soy seeds from last year or so and they still seem fine. So, following the instructions in "Siling the Farm", I'm going to make some soy milk tomorrow and buy another container of the soy yogurt and try it with soy "milk".
