Food Grade Soy
A tier
Food grade soy denotes yellow soy lots selected for human foods—tofu, milk, miso—with attention to protein composition, flavour, and purity versus bulk feed soy. Cleaner taste and better coagulation behaviour matter. Specify food grade for homemade tofu and commercial soymilk. Not a flavour cultivar name so much as a quality band. Still G. max yellow type typically.
