Eh, we could always buy the extra soybeans to feed hungry people here and abroad through the many welfare programs that… definitely still exist… right?

You're onto something here. Let's have our best engineers weaponize the soybeans to use on protestors

Do you have any idea how hard it is to get the average person to lean into soy?

In fact, the alt-right have been using it as an insult since 2012 exactly because of its public image

And do what with it? There is a reason why it's huge in china and Asia, it's a staple. Most people don't like soybeans because it's not eco friendly crop. Also soybean isn't consumed by the majority of people, there better foods out there
