General Mills
All of their cereals with Vitamin E list it as "Mixed Tocopherols" which can be soy-based (I also avoid them because they could be peanut based as well)

Kelloggs Cereals
Packaging states "Our corn contains traces of soybeans"

Pringles Chips
Even the chips that are baked with Sunflower Oil contain Soy Lecithin.

Moon Pies
Contains Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil & Soy Flour

Rice Krispie Treats (pre-packaged)
States it may contain Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil & does contain Soy Lecithin. Also lists Mixed Tocopherols but does not list the sources.

Most butters & margarines are made from soybean oil.

Just got to thinking and thought I would add the following:

Oreos
Soy Lecithin

Chocolate Chip Cookies (most companies)
Contain soy in some form - usually Soy Lecithin

Uhhh . . .

Butter is NOT made from soybean oil. Margarine or veg oil spread, yes. Butter, no.

Chocolate (in almost any form)
Contains Soy Lecithin

So much for my rare chocolate indulgences, which usually center around Christmas (Andes Mints, Nestle Crunch Jingles) and Easter (Cadbury Mini Eggs) :-[
