Damn. This time I'm the one who has to play nice. Hi Rita. Say hello to Mike, the kids and the grand babies for me.
RoeDapple 7 years, 1 month ago
Okay, 'nough of that. Where I come from you gotta grind them soybeans up with corn, milo, molasses and who knows what else just to get the cattle to eat it. Guess it's kinda like popcorn though. Without salt and butter at the very least it's pretty blah.
RoeDapple 7 years, 1 month ago
Bambi and her momma and daddy sure do like soybeans! I've had farmers tell me to hunt their place and just shoot 'em and leave 'em! I won't of course, but it's quite the indicator of what a problem these antlered vermin have become. Those grain fed deer sure are tasty though.

I bet fish would eat tofu! I might even stop by the merc and pick some up next time I go sand bar golfing and toss some crumbled tofu in the shallows to see how the fish react to it. Hell, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Might even use some for a bobber on the bank lines and catch me a big old flat head.

Dang Ronaldo! this could start a whole new investigation on what wiped out the dinosaurs!

"3 Vodka" is a brand made from distilled soy grain alcohol. May have to check it out.

Tofu is a gateway food. You start eating a little bit of tofu now and then and before you know it you're a smelly hippie living on mung beans and grass clippings.

What is with all of this tofu talk? Can we not talk about cool things like Matchbox cars or Dancing With The Stars or what color Star Jone's underwear is?
What color is smurf poop? I would like to make the Kitty purr and my saucer is always filled with milk!

Don't ever give up corndogs! I can't believe you'd even consider such a thing. I should remove your comment for even typing something like that.

Tofu Cookery 25th Anniversary Edition Edited by Louise Hagler From the Farm Community Book Publishing, 2008
Since 1983, Tofu Cookery has been America’s premier authority on how to make tofu taste delicious. Several generations of cooks have discovered the versatility of this healthful soyfood through the range of comfort foods and gourmet dishes found between the covers of this treasured volume.
Tofu has gained a well-earned reputation over the years as an economical source of high-quality, easily digestible, cholesterol-free protein.
In this 25th anniversary edition, all the recipes have been updated for today’s nutritional standards, using reduced quantities of more healthful fats, less salt, and a variety of sweeteners.
Many new recipes have been added to reflect more current tasters and trends, and to complement the old favorites everyone has loved over the years. Sumptuous photos with tofu on center stage will tempt you and help you envision how your finished dishes will look.
Barbequed Tofu
Yield: 8 servings
Using frozen tofu lends a chewy texture. Try this on the grill covered with aluminum foil to save the sauce.
To Prepare the Tofu:
Freeze, thaw, squeeze dry, and cut into 1/2 inch thick strips: * 2 pounds firm or extra firm tofu
Preheat oven to 350º F.
Spread a cookie sheet with: * 2 tablespoons olive oil
Arrange the tofu strips on the oiled cookie sheet.
Pour this mixture evenly over the tofu strips and press into the strips with a spatula or an open hand. Bake for about 15 minutes, then turn the pieces over and bake for about 10 minutes more.
Pour your favorite Barbeque Sauce over all and bake 10 minutes more. Serve with French bread and a green salad.

That Central Soy Hot Fiesta Tofu will warm up the soul in some darn good chili or a yumo stir fry.
Nothing like keeping some regional organic farmers in business with the purchase of a few tons of organic soybeans annually. Local Organic tofu with regional organic soybeans is patriotic.
A tasty dip = tofu,nayonaise,mustard,red bell peppers,garlic,red onion and fresh basil to taste. Grab your favorite crackers,chips,bread plus brew or wine and have at it. Yo brothers and sisters grab a tortilla,fill it, heat it up and you're off screaming YUMO.
Enjoy the day.....

What the heck is a BLT with tofu? Wouldn't that be a TLT? Sounds like Tommy the basement cat when he's gagging up hairballs . . .

LJworld, could you please next time ask this question somewhere other than the Merc?
I barely eat meat, but it's really no surprise that people who shop at the Merc occasionally cook with tofu.
Blessed4x 7 years ago
Sorry, Rob. The merc and downtown are the only places they ask questions. They might get some different answers if they tried Home Depot or west Lawrence every now and then, but they never will.
