   This recipe was one of Henry Ford's favorite snacks. The recipe was
   found in Cooking For Henry, a cookbook by Henry Ford's personal party
   chef, Jan Willemse. In 1934, Mr. Ford requested Willemse experiment
   in cooking with soybeans, and the cookbook has an entire chapter
   dedicated to soybean recipes.
   
   Ford was a strong supporter of soybeans and saw the possibility for
   the use of soybeans in food, milk, ice cream, paint, plastics, and
   many other things before 1930. In Ford's fast-growing automobile
   industry, and since, the soybean played a large part in the
   manufacturing of commercial products.
