Odd Soy Symptoms

[queenofhearts]

I've posted a couple of times about how MiDel Gingersnaps bothered me. Well today I had similar symptoms from Soy Crisps (by Genisoy). They both contain soy flour. The odd thing is, tofu, soy sauce, &c. don't seem to cause trouble. Nor does other bean flour, as far as I've noticed. Is there something specific to soy flour? Or is it just a coincidence?

Anybody else noticed this?

p.s. There was another post that cast some doubt on the soy crisps-- could it be a cc issue?

Hello? Anybody?

soy flour in general is difficult to digest.

I thought it was odd that other soys don't seem to bother me... but it sounds as if you're saying it's not an intolerance so much as just an inherently difficult product?

Yes, esp. if you don't have it often (the flour). If you're fine with the other stuff, I wouldn't think that you're soy intolerant, but if soy flour bothers you, I would stay away.

Sounds like a plan! I mostly bake for myself so it's not going to be a big issue. Mainly I was just worried it might be some odd soy problem that would get worse. I love tofu & soy sauce, don't have them every day but would hate to lose them!
