state <strong>of</strong> the art technology from the USA <strong>and</strong> Europe. But<br />
this technology was inappropriate in Sri Lanka except for<br />
potential large <strong>soy</strong>food processing businesses. The <strong>Center</strong><br />
would probably have been much more effective if it had<br />
been conceived as a center where people who wanted to start<br />
new businesses came to learn how to make <strong>soy</strong>foods, such<br />
as t<strong>of</strong>u, <strong>soy</strong><strong>milk</strong>, <strong>soy</strong> <strong>yogurt</strong>, roasted <strong>soy</strong> fl our, etc. using<br />
relatively simple <strong>and</strong> inexpensive appropriate technology,<br />
then returned home with a small loan <strong>and</strong> with the necessary<br />
equipment, plus plenty <strong>of</strong> follow-up from the program. (4)<br />
The idea <strong>of</strong> making <strong>soy</strong>foods at home has never worked<br />
anywhere in the world; it takes too much time. Making them<br />
on a village level will work if the village is large enough<br />
to support one person who makes the <strong>soy</strong>foods or, equally<br />
good, if a group <strong>of</strong> people in the village forms a cooperative,<br />
individuals or small teams can make one or more <strong>soy</strong>foods<br />
on a rotating basis. That way each member would get fresh<br />
<strong>soy</strong>foods each day free <strong>of</strong> charge. (5) The program gave little<br />
emphasis to edamame / green vegetable <strong>soy</strong>beans as a new<br />
garden vegetable. (6) From about 1983 until 2009 there was<br />
a terrible civil war in Sri Lanka between the militant Tamil<br />
Tigers in the north <strong>and</strong> the government <strong>of</strong> Sri Lanka in the<br />
south. The Tigers fought to create an independent Tamil state<br />
named Tamil Eelam in the north <strong>and</strong> the east <strong>of</strong> the isl<strong>and</strong>.<br />
After a 30 year long military campaign, the Sri Lankan<br />
military defeated the Tamil Tigers in May 2009. But this war<br />
took the government’s attention <strong>and</strong> resources away from<br />
many <strong>other</strong> worthwhile projects–including <strong>soy</strong>beans <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>soy</strong>foods. Address: Lafayette, California. Phone: 415-283-<br />

• Summary: Ground <strong>soy</strong>bean fermented with Lactobacillus<br />
casei ssp. [sub-species] rhamnosus (ATCC 39595) was<br />
found to contain diacetyl <strong>and</strong> acetyl-methylcarbinol. The<br />
fermented ground <strong>soy</strong>bean showed signifi cantly improved<br />

fl avor <strong>and</strong> texture compared to nonfermented material when<br />
used to replace nonfat dry <strong>milk</strong> in imitation cream cheese<br />
product. The fl avor improvement was due principally to the<br />
presence <strong>of</strong> diacetyl but the factor(s) responsible for texture<br />
improvement was not identifi ed. Diacetyl production by<br />
L. casei was enhanced by the addition <strong>of</strong> sodium acetate<br />
or sodium citrate to the ground <strong>soy</strong>bean suspension before<br />
fermentation.<br />
Note: “Lactobacillus rhamnosus is a bacterium that<br />
was originally considered to be a subspecies <strong>of</strong> L. casei, but<br />
later genetic research found it to be a species <strong>of</strong> its own.<br />
Some strains <strong>of</strong> L. rhamnosus are being used as probiotics.<br />
The species is sometimes used in <strong>yogurt</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>other</strong> dairy<br />
products” (Source: Wikipedia at Lactobacillus rhamnosus).<br />
