I've been preaching about this now and then here. It's highly estrogenic. And it's in damn near everything now.

See: Estrogens in the daily diet: In vitro analysis indicates that estrogenic activity is omnipresent in foodstuff and infant formula

Furthermore, we found soy lecithin to be strongly estrogenic. It might, therefore, be a major contributor to total estrogenicity. We conclude that dietary estrogens are omnipresent and not limited to soy-based food.

"Real" mayonaisse? Consists of 60-70% soybean oil now. Wasn't like this before. You have to go for the Canola Mayonnaise (canola / rapeseed oil) varieties, or more expensive brands like Sir Kensington's (sunflower oil) to avoid it.

Bread, pizza, pastries, chips, etc? Watch out for soy lecithin / emulsifier towards the end of the ingredients list. It's also in most breakfast cereals, fruit and power bars... the list goes on. Use workout protein powder? Guess what? Better check those ingredients, 99% of them contain soy lecithin even if they are whey based.
