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.

They’re an amazing cheese like alternative and I literally sprinkle these over everything!01/05/2020, By MarieFirst time using this. Not quite the cheese replacement I've heard people claim it to be, but definitely has its own type of umami taste that can be a bit addictive. Easy to add to anything as a taste boost.25/04/2020, By RobynIt is my first time trying this product and I really enjoy the taste. Will buy again.15/04/2020, By BThe yeast has a tangy mushroom like taste, not too much like cheese. It is really tasty to sprinkle on all sorts of things.06/04/2020, By Sarah FSuch a healthy product!

My doctor recommeded this over taking Vit B tables or injections20/01/2020, By AmoréI love this product, its a natural way to get all amino acids and vitamin B's.

It really works!11/12/2019, By BernadetteI am so amazed at the taste of this product. I use it all the time on my popcorn because it tastes like cheese.

I absolutely love it - on salads, pasta, popcorn, etc, anything really!15/07/2019, By Yummy goodnessGreat source of vitamin b especially when on keto diet03/06/2019, By SueThis is nice over some dishes such as pasta and soup, but I find the flavor rather subtle, and so it doesn't add a big flavor boost. I would rather get it for it's nutritional benefits rather than it's taste.16/05/2019, By MelissaI bought this before at a random health shop and haven't been able to find it again until a friend recommended I check here. I am so happy to find that my favorite health website has it!!13/05/2019, By Holly-AnneGreat tasting vegan cheese alternative. A bit pricey for the quantity but SO WORTH IT.

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.

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. 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.20/08/2018, By JReally good on fluffy baked potatoes, steamed cauliflower and broccoli, and pasta.

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.
