SOYBOY I

Everybody calls Irwan a soyboy. Why soyboy? Because he decided to become a total soy fiend, and by soy fiend, I mean he’d eat tofu, almond milk, bamboo shoot pasta, hempseed, whatever at a drop of a hat. Have steak at an event? Forget about it; you’ll find him at the corner sipping on some tofu blend, doing yoga, and talking about kale. You won’t catch Irwan without his reusable grocery bags, even when it means lugging around twenty pounds of groceries with the bin handles cutting into his fingers. We admire his green cred and whole-food focus, but, okay, we laugh a little when he tries to convince us that drinking cashew milk is the pathway to eternal life or when he hosts weeknight kale recipe-off competitions in the neighbourhood park. Whether you love him or laugh at him, you can always count on Soyboy to bring a touch of quirkiness (and some tasty hummus) to our little corner of the world!
