partly so I'm always getting extra soluble fiber, but also because I like a lot of the ways it works with food. It emulsifies oil and water, so I used it to make a salad dressing with just a little olive oil and some lemon juice.
I love to bake with it, because it keeps cakes fresher and moister. It gives a really silky feeling to textures, too, which I like in things like soups and puddings.
My weirdest trick is to sprinkle it over an Amy's soy cheese pizza before I bake it. It melts into the cheese and disappears!
