You don’t always need a star to field a good team. When talkin’ lunch you often hear reductive terms such as “turkey sandwich,” “roast beef on sourdough,” and so on.

People keep warning me that eating too much soy will do bad stuff to my body. Supposedly it can give me boobs. I fail to see the problem there.
