Yes, there is, but the answer to that is Top Secret. I don't care. I just can't live with this terrible weight on my shoulders any longer. Call me Deep Throat if you must, but the conspiracy will be revealed. It is for the good of mankind. They can kill me if they have to, but I prefer the mercy of death to having to go to sleep every night, keeping such a terrible secret.

The only time I've seen soya sauce mentioned is in some British recipes, and it sounds like the same stuff that we call soy sauce over here in the States.
If there is a difference, I didn't get any clue from the recipes as to what that might be.

Nope, they are the exact same thing; soy sauce is used more commonly, though.
=^^=
Here's a snippet of an article from Wikipedia ... The introductory sentence suggest that the terms 'soy sauce' and 'soya sauce' are used interchangeably ...
"Soy sauce (US) or soya sauce is a fermented sauce made from soybeans (soya beans), roasted grain, water and salt. The sauce, originating in China, is commonly used in East and South Eastern Asian cuisine and appears in some Western cuisine dishes, especially as an ingredient in Worcestershire sauce."

The only difference between "Soy Sauce" and
"Soya Sauce" is the thickness of the sauce.
Soya sauce is thinned Soy Sauce and it is lighter. Soya sauce is a relatively new innovation in the line of sauces. Both sauces are made from Soy beans.

If "Brits tend to say 'soya'", why have I never heard of 'soya sauce'? I'M British!!! My British English spell-check doesn't like the word 'soya' either!!
Frankly, I would have guessed that it was just regional or personal variations in pronunciation. A google search indicates that the terms are interchangeable.

I am a former chef and aside from the spelling, you have dark, regular and lite soya/soy sauces, and the country of origin does make a bit of difference to and whether it is naturally brewed or chemically made.. Some are less salty, darker in colour sweetness and the amount of caramel colouring used to tint it, for me I am partial to Japanese or Korean types, and like Filipino for braised items as it has a bit of sweetness.
