Shopping for Soy
Looking to enjoy the benefits of soy? In the past, this may have seemed like a tall order, but delicious soy products now abound — ranging in variety from imitation bacon and sausage to soy-flour-based cereals — to tempt even skeptical carnivores. Considering soy's possible heart-health and anticancer benefits (and the new-and-improved flavor of most products), there's never been a better time to embrace it. Here is an assortment of great soy products — perfect for every Phase of the South Beach Diet — that you can find in your neighborhood grocery store:
* Soy milk (low-fat plain or artificially sweetened flavored varieties)
* Soy burgers (look for products that contain less than 6 grams of fat per 2-3 ounce serving)
* Soy dogs (look for products that contain less than 6 grams of fat per 2-3 ounce serving)
* Soy crumbles
* Tempeh
* Soy nuts
* Tofu
* Soy chicken strips
* Soy deli meat
* Smoked tofu
* Edamame
* Roasted soy beans
