Milken, for one, isn't waiting for confirmation of that theory. "You should feel comfortable knowing that everything we eat here is nonfat and vegetarian," he tells visitors to his Santa Monica, California, offices. A typical lunch, prepared by his private dietitian, consists of mushroom barley soup, a tofu egg-salad sandwich (the "egg" is actually tofu with mustard and spices ) with carrots and lettuce, and a black-bean-and-corn salad with a soy-based drink.
