My husband is allergic to soy, peanuts...well legumes in general and even the smell of them will sometime give him some sort of reaction, ranging from rash to vomiting. People that are allergic to soy are allergic to the protein in it. And I can't find anywhere what part of soy the cushions are made of. Has any research been done on it? Thank-you I’m trying to find out if people who are allergic to soy will have a reaction to the soy cushions.

I can't even be across the street from a soybean field without having an allergic reaction. Guess I'll be avoiding Fords in the future too. I agree about the soy allergies.
