I'm not sure what exactly these "not for profit" guys are selling, but
I'm not buying. There's something fishy here.

So a non-profit is really gung-ho on soy. Pretty impressive supporters,
being non-profit and all, eh? Except that the person who set up this
apparently independent, self-sacrificing, for-the-good-of-humanity,
non-profit actually sells many many products loaded with soy.
Hmmmm....... couldn't be a connection. I must just be paranoid.

I guess we can take the word of this non-profit that their owners and
founders and funders for-profit product is among the worlds healthiest
foods. Yep, I'm convinced. I think I'll start feeding my children this
wonderful healthiest food and ignore the actual science.

Pretty darned slimey of this for-profit to actually create a non-profit
to sell their products. And worst of all they present it not just as
edible but as one of the *healthiest* foods in the world. I would think
that this would open them up to some kind of legal liability.
