hi everyone.
I keep reading a lot of horror stories regarding breast cancer and soy foods, i am sure they are exagerated, but as i am on the contraceptive patch which is also linked to increase etc, i am trying to limit my soy intake.
I already have rice milk and I used to have rice cheese but they appear to have stopped selling it in the UK! So my first question is does anyone know where it can be purchased in the uk? my second is i have heard nutritional yeast flakes can be used as a cheese replacement, but not sure if safe for IBS? and thirdly if anyone knows how many portions of soya food are considered the 'moderate' amount reacommended?

The uncheese cookbook by Joanne Stepaniak uses alot of nutritional yeast to make cheese. It is a cheese replacement cookbook. I haven't tried them.

Although I'm not technically vegan, but vegetarian, I don't eat dairy for reasons we are all too familiar with. But I do eat farm eggs from pet farm chickens. I've used many recipes in the Uncheese cookbook and never ever had any problems. I recommend the book and nutritional yeast!

keepingpositive, I feel your pain! I'm in the Czech Republic and although I live in the capital, I only know of one store that always has rice milk in stock! Soy just doesn't really agree with me. When I lived in the US I could just go to the store and there was a variety of different "milks" and brands and flavors, but here all they seem to have is soy. I am thinking about making my own, there are tons of recipes out there on the internet. I actually tried it last year but I wasn't too successful  . Maybe I'll invest in a soy milk maker (they can be used for rice and almonds, too).

Will do, but it probably won't happen for a while. Last time I was at the store that carries rice milk I stocked up !
