Jason: What are you doing? Paige: Ever hear the expression, "A watched pot never boils"? Jason: Yeah, why? Paige: Mom's making her tofu ravioli for dinner just as soon as this water's ready, so I'm watching it to keep that from happening. Peter: Paige, you've had some pretty lame ideas, but this... Paige: She's making a triple recipe. Peter: Scoot over a little. Paige: Try not to blink when I do.

Tofu on it’s own is practically flavorless. Which is why you make it with strongly seasoned sauces.

Tofu? Is that the stuff that looks like construction material in the weirdo aisle of the store?

It’s not the taste, it’s the consistency. Kind of like mashed up earthworms.

Tofu is bean curd. You have probably eaten it without knowing what it was. It is common in Chinese food, where you see it as cubes of a soft, white substance having little flavor. Every culture, for some reason, has its favorite whitish, pale food thing that has little flavor and an odd texture. Consider it the oriental version of the potato.

Tofu is for people who either have no taste-buds or just do not care what they gobble.

Tofu is made out of soybeans. Very unhealthy stuff, especially since most soybeans are GMO’s. They are now finding out that unfermented soybeans causes numerous health problems, this includes soy milk.

Tofu tastes like what ever you put it with. So it’s actually not bad but I could never eat it as a main course
