Summary A histochemical staining method for showing the carbohydrate constituents of plant tissue was applied to dried soya bean, textured soya proteins and commercial meat and cereal products containing soya. A description including photomicrographs of the cellular material characteristic of soya bean and its products follows. This shows the incorporation of cellular elements in textured soya products and in foodstuffs to which material of soya origin had been added.
