Not everything in Heck's Lab turns out well. I'm not happy to have to talk about these, but hope to share some of the reasons for failures, once I've figured them out.

Foaming with Soy Lecithin

This is a big warning. Not all lecithin is the same. Health food stores carry some interesting 97% pure soy lecithin. We're not sure what the remaining 3% is, but you're pretty much guaranteed that it's not going to taste very good. The last bit we got hold of smelled like damp chicken feed, which, unfortunately for us, is what we use for kitty litter, and that is not particularly appetizing, to say the least.

Since the previous report, a number of manufacturers are advertising Soy Lecithin with a nutty flavour. Clearly, it's no longer considered flavour neutral.
