jlhDownside of making chowder with soy milk: It's kind of a brown-gray color.
Upside of making chowder with soy milk: I can eat it.
To be honest, the constant bashing of soy milk gets me a little down. I'm not drinking it as some yuppie affectation. I don't think drinking soy milk makes me a lightweight asshole. I continue to be mystified by the depth of contempt people have for the concept of putting soy milk in coffee (though I don't drink coffee so maybe I'm a lightweight anyway). If you don't like soy milk that's fine, but to feel that you always have to make a noise of disgust when it's mentioned is seriously rude, because it implies that anyone who does drink it is, well, something negative anyway, and certainly defensive.
I don't really get that need to put down what other people like just because you don't like it, especially when it's harmless and sometimes necessary.
