Soy products and health foods

It's the only food i'll buy from those places since I know they have to use only the cleanest water to wash and prepare the soy beans.
Then again, now that I look back, looks like Timid Geek made another version. So if you're able to get a hold of some silken tofu, go ahead and add whatever syrup you want--i like caramel with sweetened tapioca pearls. or try ginger syrup--ginger is an herbal medicine so that should compensate for the sugar intake...I think.

From where I'm from we call it "tou fu hua". It's certainly easier to just buy it from the vendors than making it yourself and it tastes great with a sugar syrup. I can eat tofu in almost anyway, but the one I like best (probably not the healthiest) is to cover it with cheese, garlic and some pepper and then baking it until the cheese melts. Yummy!

Jam it back in, in the dark.
