>Soy is a major allergan for people of non-oriental extraction---a large part of the population

Really? I eat tons of the stuff... I know plenty of people who eat it in place of other things to which they're allergic, but I don't know a single person who is allergic to soy.

>The good news is that the pendulum will eventually swing back as the medical community determines we aren't getting enough fat to fuel our cholesterol needs.

Adding back trans fats wouldn't help. And remember, NYC isn't banning fat, it's banning one kind of fat. People would, in theory, eat the same amount of fat in proportion to the amount of food they eat (presumably they'd eat a little less food over all because trans fats are less filling), but still get the same amount of fat. It'd just be healthier fat.
