This subject is one where "de gustibus" must apply.
Having said that, I should shut up but I can't resist.

IMHO, I have yet to detect a taste or texture in plain tofu tho'
the fried
stuff has a little. Freeze-dried tofu is a bit of an improvement
and the
Japanese once made that naturally on farms by using the
difference in night and day temperatures. Marinated, baked tofu
gains a little texture but the taste is that of the marinade!
