Baking soda added to any vegetable while improving the looks and other 
aspects of  the dish also destroys vitamins. Of course, this is not a problem 
if your diet is varied. But some folks seem to be focused on a very small 
group of foods that they will actually eat. So those folks should NEVER use 
baking soda in their dishes outside of baking, IMO.
