RE: What are your thoughts on soy sauce for toddlers/preschoolers?
There is at least one case report in the medical literature of a successful suicide by soy sauce ingestion. It has *that* much salt. Even the "lower-sodium" kind has 25% of an adult's daily needs in one tablespoon. We love soy sauce here but I am very careful about the amount Jonathan gets. I would rather use it as a table seasoning at the last minute than splash it around in a marinade, since I think as a marinade you lose lots of that distinctive soy flavor while keeping the salt.
