927. Leneman, Leah. 1991. Re: Observations on the<br />
<strong>soy</strong>foods market in Britain <strong>and</strong> the United States. Letter to<br />
William Shurtleff at Soyfoods <strong>Center</strong>, Oct. 7. 1 p. Typed,<br />
with signature.<br />
• Summary: On a recent trip to the USA, Leah was “greatly<br />
puzzled by the seemingly complete absence <strong>of</strong> T<strong>of</strong>utti. Two<br />
years ago I was able to get it wherever we went, while this<br />
time I saw it nowhere. The only completely non-dairy ‘ice<br />
cream’ in supermarkets was Mocha Mix, a greatly inferior<br />
product. Health food stores still had the Farm’s non-dairy<br />
products <strong>and</strong> Rice Dream but no T<strong>of</strong>utti... I certainly did miss<br />
the pleasure <strong>of</strong> eating one <strong>of</strong> my all-time favourite products!<br />
“It certainly seems as though Britain–<strong>and</strong> even the<br />
Continent–has forged way ahead <strong>of</strong> America when it comes<br />
to <strong>soy</strong>foods, something I would never have believed possible<br />
even a couple <strong>of</strong> years ago. We have a good range <strong>of</strong> ‘ice<br />
creams’, an ever-increasing range <strong>of</strong> t<strong>of</strong>u-based convenience<br />
meals etc. etc. Even Safeways has an own-br<strong>and</strong> <strong>soy</strong>a <strong>milk</strong>.<br />
And in the <strong>yogurt</strong> fi eld we are even importing divine <strong>soy</strong>a<br />
<strong>milk</strong> <strong>yogurt</strong>s [Sojasun] from France. (There are British ones<br />
as well but not nearly as good.)”<br />
The Vegetarian Society <strong>of</strong> the UK has sold <strong>of</strong>f its<br />
magazine, The Vegetarian. Note: The magazine was sold to a<br />
publisher with no connections to vegetarianism; they which<br />
re-issued it under the title Vegetarian Living. They went<br />
bankrupt <strong>and</strong> sold the magazine to HHL Publishing Group<br />
Ltd. in London. As <strong>of</strong> late 1993 it was still being published<br />
being published by HHL under the title Vegetarian Living.<br />

• Summary: Sojasun, a <strong>soy</strong> <strong>yogurt</strong> made in France [by<br />
Triballat], was the best new product at this year’s autumn<br />
show in Baltimore, held the fi rst week in September. The<br />
fl avor <strong>and</strong> texture were superb. Their agent in the USA<br />
is looking for an American company to manufacture the<br />
product <strong>and</strong> do a joint venture.<br />

Nichii Co. <strong>of</strong> America had a huge exhibit, perhaps 4<br />
booths, for their MicroSoy Flakes. Neither Richard nor<br />
anyone he has talked to can underst<strong>and</strong> what Nichii is doing,<br />
or why anyone would want to buy their product. Yet many<br />
people are happy to be working with them since they seem to<br />
have a lot <strong>of</strong> money <strong>and</strong> they pay promptly. Perhaps they can<br />
see something that those who have been in the U.S. t<strong>of</strong>u <strong>and</strong><br />
<strong>soy</strong><strong>milk</strong> industry for many years cannot yet see.<br />
Richard’s fat-free version <strong>of</strong> T<strong>of</strong>uRella (named Heart’s<br />

slices by Dec. 1. A 100% casein-free cheese alternative <strong>and</strong> a<br />

• Summary: Discusses these three industry trends, plus San-J<br />
International, White Wave, <strong>and</strong> Lightlife Foods.<br />
San-J will be introducing its OCIA organic certifi ed<br />
tamari gold label in November. The 10-ounce product will<br />
sell for the same price as its non-organic counterpart. “While<br />
the majority <strong>of</strong> White Wave’s $3 million sales still come<br />
from t<strong>of</strong>u, tempeh products reportedly are not far behind.<br />
The company says it is growing at about 30 percent annually,<br />
<strong>and</strong> its fi rst <strong>and</strong> second generation tempeh products are<br />
achieving more than 100 percent growth. White Wave’s<br />
latest <strong>of</strong>fering is a <strong>soy</strong> <strong>yogurt</strong> product called Dairyless<br />
that is made with live active <strong>yogurt</strong> cultures, including<br />
<strong>acidophilus</strong> <strong>and</strong> bifi dus. Lightlife Foods, an<strong>other</strong> major <strong>soy</strong><br />
foods company, has redesigned its logo <strong>and</strong> added two new<br />
products, a vegetarian chili <strong>and</strong> a sloppy joe mix, both made<br />
with tempeh.” Address: 1. President; 2. Vice president. Both:<br />
