You can make soy sprouts fresh yourself if you can't find a convenient supply. Finally, you can eat fresh soybeans as a green vegetable. Although you can occasionally find fresh soybean pods for sale in some local Asian markets, they can always be found frozen, either in the pods or already shelled. These are soybeans boiled quickly in salted water in the pod. Frozen shelled soybeans, steamed and seasoned with sea salt or any appropriate light condiment, make a wonderfully nutritious spring green vegetable to accompany Western or Oriental entrees.
Soybeans ARE good for something.
