> So have you had any soy or teriyaki sauce yet??Yes. I had tofu teriyaki two nights ago (but keep in mind I am on 6 mg right now, not 9 mg). I also had a mini-pizza with goat cheese, and a feta cheese omelet recently. No problems at all.
Read the studies. There is very limited evidence for the dietary restrictions. When I go on 9 mg, I will be more careful but even the studies are dubious with that dosage.
