This organically produced dried yeast from Health Connection is a vegan's dream for two reasons:
- Firstly, it has a naturally delicious cheese-like taste, which can be used to enhance the flavour of vegan and vegetarian casseroles, soups & sauces.
- Secondly, it's high in vitamin B1, B2 and B6, which can be hard to find in large amounts if you follow a vegan diet. Nutritional yeast is high in protein and folic acid as well.
Please Note: Health Connection Nutritional Yeast is a condiment and a dietary supplement; not suitable as a raising agent for baking.
Store in a cool dry place. After opening, store in an airtight container.
This product is packed in a warehouse where peanuts and tree nuts are present.

Works well for a vegan mac n cheese!03/05/2019, By GillianWonderful nutritious vegan cheese alternative. I love sprinkling this over my cold and warm foods and mixing into sauces. I cant picture life without this substitute anymore.15/03/2019, By KathYUM YUM YUM.

Great in sauces, topped on veggie bakes.11/02/2019, By BeneSo delicious! I used this to make an egg substitute to make breaded tofu. So yum!31/01/2019, By HananjaI love using this product, in salads and other recipes. Adds nice flavour14/01/2019, By BosnimfI tried this for the first time after hearing about nutritional yeast. It was in a cheesy cauliflower recipy. I expected it to be a bit more 'cheesy' but then realised that our nutritional yeast and the overseas version is not quite the same....it was still very delicious!16/12/2018, By BeccaFirst time using nutritional yeast after hearing lots about it. I love it, it's delicious. Will purchase a larger package next time!03/12/2018, By NellyI use this in my homemade lentil burger patties and it adds a nice, cheesy and savoury flavour!15/11/2018, By AnonymousLove this sprinkled popcorn. Air popped popcorn with a healthy yummy sprinkling.04/10/2018, By ArlineGreat taste substitute for a cheese (vegan) and great at thickening sauces - lasts a long time27/09/2018, By IlseVery tasty nutritional yeast. I sprinkle it over soup, veggies and great to make a vegan cheese (just add the nutritional yeast to cashews or macadamia's, add some salt, garlic and blend in a high speed blender). Great value is you buy in bulk.27/09/2018, By IlseVery tasty nutritional yeast.

When it's added to liquids like sauce or soup it melts.24/07/2018, By ElaniDis is super yummy. I love sprinkling it over my popcorn!12/07/2018, By Veggie-KraaiLove it Love it love, every kitchen should have these, i have one at work, one in the car and at home, sprinkle on everything, its amazing, its my "vegan-Parmesan" its my option on fries or salad or my own pizza yummy yummy22/06/2018, By AshleighThis is a great option for nutritional yeast lovers. Super yum, and super well priced!09/06/2018, By RonAddictive! I sprinkle this over anything even remotely in need of a savoury bite (try it over salad with balsamic vinegar!)29/05/2018, By DebbieNutritional yeast is the best! I use this on or in absolutely everything I make these days!16/03/2018, By JoyceTried this with GMO-free corn kernels to make healthy popcorn for my toddler, it is so easy and yummy! I agree with previous reviewer, you need to add quite a bit to get the taste. What I would do to make the flakes stick to the popcorn after popping is spray popcorn with cooking olive oil spray and throw in yeast flakes and Himalayan Pink salt and shake. Repeat process if necessary to get the taste you like. I am happy to give my toddler this everyday without the nasties in commercial packaged popcorn!04/03/2018, By StephnieThis is a staple in my vegetarian kitchen. It adds a nice umami kick to savoury dishes. Great sprinkled on veg or pasta dishes.08/02/2018, By NatsA very yummy, flavourful Nutritional Yeast.Comparable in flavour to Nature’s Own but a bit pricier.04/02/2018, By AdrienneAbsolutely love this! Being lactose intolerant I can’t eat cheese and this is the perfect substitute!01/02/2018, By EroetsVery nice. Added this to tomato soup to give a cheesy taste, it's not very strong, just right.20/12/2017, By ZestThese are good, although not quite as cheesy tasting as I'd hoped (you have to use a lot, or mix them with other ingredients). A few rands cheaper at DisChem, unless you get the FtN bulk special.
