Yes, they do

At least along the West Coast of North America anyway. It all stems from the hippy culture of the 60s and 70s.
Actually, I've had the stuff, and it really varies in taste and quality. Some of it *is* godawful, practically to the point of sending you to the porcelain alter. But, I've also tried brands that are surprisingly good. I hate the taste of cow's milk, so consequently I've attempted many of the alternatives.
Still... the health food nuts take it to a real extreme. It's not uncommon while standing in a lineup to get a coffee to hear, "Could I please have a decaf, no-fat, no foam, soy latte."
*shudder* I mean really... why bother?
