I went to Japan during this time and ate very famous Japanese tofu. It feels different from Chinese tofu. Is Japanese tofu a soy product?

    In fact, Japanese tofu is not a soy product. It is known that soy products are high in calcium and rich in nutrients. However, the yellowed and tender Japanese tofu is not a soy product. It is also called jade tofu, and jade means egg in Japanese. Japanese tofu is made of water, eggs, salt and other ingredients. Unlike ordinary tofu, it has very little calcium content. Although the calcium content is very small, it also has certain nutritional value in other aspects.
