Well we sure eat of it, that's for sure. Approximately 10% of the calories of what Americans consume comes from soy. Just think about that for a second. One tenth of all American food. Even if you don't buy soy products like soy milk, tofu etc, if you regularly eat out or buy any kind of processed food chances are you're gulping down pounds of that stuff every month.
Oh by the way, that number doesn't even include livestock that was fed soy, which is basically all of it. 70% of all soy produced goes to feed animals. Just think about all those hormones that steak you buy at the store contains.
So yeah, my point is that no matter what you think about soy it is an absolutely vital part of the American diet. Taking out soy would be like taking out wheat, or corn. It's that engrained to our diet.
