It is true, but as you say, it's generally the Asian companies who are at fault. China in particular. Tofu of course is manufactured in lots of western countries now as you say, and obviously there are regulations about what to do with the byproducts which can be quite toxic to the environment.

Unfortunately, China and some other Asian countries don't have these same regulations which allow companies to get away with dumping the refuse into rivers.

I can't find the info I want online for some reason. Just a whole heap of stuff about what other countries do with their refuse, but nothing that even mentions China. There used to be videos and pictures of it with articles talking about what happens to the rivers etc, but they just aren't there now and Dazza can't lay his hands on the articles he had a while back just at the moment.

I guess my advice would be to not eat tofu made in asian countries if you want to be sure it's manufactured in an environmentally sound manner.

Sounds like a conspiracy, Ali.
