Ingredients: Dried yeast, niacin (B3), pyridoxine hydrochloride (B6), thiamine hydrochloride (B1), riboflavin (B2), folic acid, cyanocobalamin (B12)
Non-GMO, naturally Gluten free, low in fat and salt, no added preservatives, flavors or colors
Origin: USA
Production: pure strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae are grown on mixtures of cane and beet molasses. After the fermentation process is completed, "Cream yeast" is heated and held at pasteurization temperatures for a period long enough to inactivate the yeast. During this holding period, all necessary vitamins are added. After drum drying, the yeast is flaked or ground and is now ready for consumption.
Properties: Nutritional Yeast is a powdered yeast without leavening power and is appreciated for its high protein content (~ 50% protein by weight) and is rich in B-complex vitamins that are important for normal and healthy body functions. It contains other beneficial components, such as Beta-1,3 glucan and mannan, complex carbohydrates known to improve the immune response and help maintain healthy cholesterol levels; Trehalose, a disaccharide that helps maintain the health of brain cells; and Glutathione, an antioxidant that plays an important role in cellular defense mechanisms (~2.5mg/g)
Common Use: not only can nutritional yeast be considered a "superfood", providing many nutritional benefits, it also enhances the flavor of many dishes, drinks, dressings, sauces, and snacks. Nutritional yeast has a nutty or cheesy flavor which makes it popular as an ingredient in cheese substitutes.
Storage: Store in an airtight container away from direct heat or light.

Excellent price, great quality
I can’t get this yeast for anywhere close to the price here. Since it’s large flakes I smoosh it up to more of a powdery consistency. We are vegan and use it to make sauces, dips, and sprinkle on salad.

CanadaGood tasting BUT not sure
Good flavor, use it for everything, but after researching Nutritional Yeast found this one is fortified with the synthetic B12 instead of the natural type, methylcobalamin. And the synthetic one doesn't absorb as well. So back to finding another source if possible with that in it.

Great Tasting
This was the first place I have ever bought Nutritional Yeast from. I use it in my scrambled eggs with a bit of Cumin. Use it on popcorn. Cut up Zucchini and mixed the nutritional yeast with spices, dusted the Zucchini with it, then freeze dried. Delicious healthy snack.

My nutritional yeast came very quickly, just exactly as described. This is a very fair price and a very good product. I won’t buy it from anywhere else!
