Which Veggie Burgers Were Made With a Neurotoxin?

Article Hi guys, never posted here before but have been veggie for 16 years thought I'd share this info about Hexane. I'm not sure if Hexane is in Soy Products in Ireland but it is in the States, heard anything about this stuff?

You can take that with a large pinch of salt.

The Weston A. Price foundation are behind this and other scare stories. They are an industry group who are very anti-vegetarian.

Edit: seems that Weston Price foundation weren't behind it.

I'd still be pretty sceptical about any possible dangers though.
