Soy products are made from soybean. They are an alternative for milk and milk products like cheese, yoghurts, flavoured milk, and spreads. Soy products also act as an alternative for meat products, as well as vegan diets. They are rich in protein content and provide amino acids that are vital for the body. Soy contains two types of fatty acids viz., omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids. Soybean was first cultivated in China from where it spread to other parts of Asia and the world. Soybeans are used to prepare a variety of food products such as tofu, tamari, soymilk, soy flour, tempeh and others. Soymilk is produced after soaking soybeans in water. Tofu is a cheese-like food made after curdling the soymilk and is a near perfect alternative for cheese for lactose intolerant people. Tamari or soy sauce is prepared by fermenting soybeans and is used as flavouring agent.

Another driver for soy is its price: the prices of soy products are significantly lower than that of milk products.  This attracts more customers towards the products.
