I've had nutritional yeast once before in the form of a "Mac and Chreese"-in-a-box product and loved it. While it wasn't as much cheesy as it was garlicky, I had high hopes that "nooch" could satisfy the instinctual human need for Velveeta-style "cheeze". I could never find it at a grocery store OR a health store so I finally ordered this on Amazon.
Wow. Yeah, I said wow. I used this in a recipe for "Cheeze Sauce" that was fat-free and it was amazing. Plus it had tons of protein, fiber, and of course the illustrious vitamin B-12! There are other similar recipes that call for LOTS of margarine that sound even cheesier and richer.
This bottle lasted me about 2 recipes with a little leftover for sprinkling, so if you're new to cooking with nutritional yeast this is a good size to start with. I've since bought a 22-oz container of a different brand, but this brand is just as good.
In conclusion...buy this, make lots of cheeze/chreese or any intentional misspelling of "cheese" you desire, be nice to animals and get 150% of your daily value of B-12.

Whoever said healthy food does not taste good, never tried this stuff! I am a life long vegetarian but only started using nutritional yeast last year. This stuff tastes great and is so easy to use. I use it to make scrambled vegan eggs (with tofu). So many vegan recipes call for this stuff and I can see why. It's a powerhouse of nutrients and tastes like cheese!

I may have strange taste buds, but i find adding Red Star Nutritional Yeast to salads, soups, fresh veggies and dips adds a nice savory, earthy flavor. I've started using it as a salt substitute. Gotta love that!

Satisfied.
I am satisfied with this product. I bought it to use in the place of Parmesan cheese. I have not notice a difference, so I guess that is the point. Read more

Adds flavor to my kale chips.
Thought I would give these yeast flakes a try on making kale chips. I see that there are many other uses that they can also be used for. Good product.
