There’s a lot of controversy about soy and whether it’s good for you. My opinion is that in moderation, I feel fine eating it. I look at it this way; I feel better eating an edamame burger and fries than if I went into town and bought a double cheeseburger with giant onion rings and a shake. I like to eat food that tastes good, so we make 90% of our meals at home. We experiment with different spices and ingredients, so we never make the same meal the same way. For example, this edamame burger is what I made last night.
