Bragg Premium Nutritional Yeast Seasoning - Vegan, Gluten Free – Good Source of Protein & Vitamins – Nutritious Savory Parmesan Cheese Substitute (Original, 12 Ounce (Pack of 1))

I bought this to use as a cheese substitute in cooking/breads. I will say, not a great substute in breads. Where it has a savory, cheddar bay buscuit flavor, you NEED some cheddar in it too, but honestly, it would make some delicious cheddar bay biscuits.. i digress. I also wanted to try this in mac and cheese. This has a very "nutty/umami" flavor profile. It definitely tastes more like parmesan than cheddar, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. If making mac & cheese, I would think that milk powder would need to be used in conjunction with this powder, otherwise, flavor would not likely be as "right". Ingredients are solid, and it's a surprisingly fortified mixture. The package is not huge, but if you don't use a lot at a time, it will last for several meals. I've used under 1/10th of the bag on 2 or 3 meals, already. I would say it's a decent value for the cost. It's a great substitute for parmesan in alfredo sauce, it does taste a bit different, but not bad. Interesting product, very savory, almost nutty flavor that most closely resembles parmesan, when cooked, it has a creamier texture, not gritty.

This is a healthy substitute for cheese. Bragg nutritional yeast has a nutty cheesy flavor and can be used on soup, salads, pasta, popcorn, and other foods. It contains B vitamins and complete protein. It comes in a resealable plastic bag for easy storage. The yeast is light yellow and small so it mixes easily with foods. The 12 oz. bag is a good value.

Love this stuff. Not a vegan. I love that I can add it to so many foods I make for a nutritious, delicious addition. Slightly nutty/cheesy flavor. I add to homemade crackers, turning tortillas into chips, soups, etc. Yummy.

This stuff taste amazing and is great for you. My DD is a picky eater and I want to make sure she gets everything she needs in a diet. And put this in her macaroni and cheese to boil the noodles and she had three helpings of it so the seasoning quality is phenomenal. The ingredients are great with all the B vitamins. And the appearances looks like chicken bouillon.

This is great stuff! Does help quite a bit with getting my picky cats to eat their food! Highly recommended!

This stuff is one of the better tabletop food dressings that should be on your dinner table. It adds some nice cheesy flavor and only makes your meal better for your body. The price is very good, and a bag will last at least a month or two. Put it in an older Parmesan cheese "Shaker" can and add some when the meal is done cooking or baking, and add more at the table. Bragg does need to return their Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother back to its original recipe, but that is for another review....

I do a lot of cooking and am always looking for different recipes to give me ideas to vary our diet. I am also into healthy foods and avoid GMO products as much as possible. Braggs has become a brand I trust since I use Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar which is totally non-GMO whereas many vinegars are made using GMO soy. I very much believe that "you are what you eat". My husband and I are both in our late 70's, and neither of us have any health issues nor are we taking any medications at all. I recently came across a recipe that called for nutritional yeast, which I had not heard of, so I did some research on it. I found that although nutritional yeast is used as a seasoning, it contains protein and a number of B vitamins that most diets are deficient in. It should be noted here that B vitamins are an addition to some brands of nutritional yeast, but not all brands include them. Bragg Nutritional yeast does include the B vitamins, including vitamin B12 which seems to be the vitamin many are deficient in. Not all brands of nutritional yeast contain all of the vitamins and minerals that this one does. You should check what is included in any other brand you might consider. The main benefits of this nutritional yeast are: - Protein. Nutritional yeast contains all nine essential amino acids that you must obtain from food. It’s also a source of high quality plant protein - B vitamins. Fortified nutritional yeast is especially rich in B vitamins, including thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), and B6 and B12 - Trace minerals. These include zinc, selenium, manganese, and molybdenum, which are involved in gene regulation, metabolism, growth, and immunity - Provides a tasty way to add B vitamins and trace minerals to food without taking more pills. - A great way to thicken creamed soups or other recipes that thinned after freezing. As for uses of nutritional yeast, you can use it: - as a seasoning for popcorn, pasta, salad, or casserole dishes - as an umami flavor in soups, stews, or chili - as a savory, cheesy flavor in vegan sauces - as a thickener for soups and sauces - as an ingredient in smoothies - as an addition to any recipe already containing cheese, ie. macaroni and cheese. Can't have too much cheese, right? Personally, I am open to using products that add health value to foods. Tonight, we had homegrown steamed scarlet kale for a veggie, and I mixed 2 tsp. of this nutritional yeast into the kale after steaming and adding some butter. The recommended amount for a serving is 2 tbsp. but I was conservative since the seasoning is new to me. My husband didn't taste a difference, but I tasted a hint of cheese. I will add more to the next veggies we have since I did like the flavor it added to the greens. Although the flavor of the seasoning, depending on how much you use, is subtle, the additional B vitamins added to foods is much better than having to take daily pill supplements. I will likely be using this as a seasoning to add flavor and B vitamins to the greens I grow and use as sides. I do like the flavor it adds and will be experimenting with adding it to other foods and recipes. I will update this review as I gain more experience in using this healthy seasoning. I am all for anything that adds nutritional benefits to to foods we eat. Personally, I don't see a benefit over the original blend as the garlic is not at all noticeable. I hope this review was helpful for you.

Someone named this “yeast” to gatekeep, these are incredible and good for you?! Should be illegal, they taste good on everything cheddar cheese would. So almost everything lol. I use these as a normal topping for any savory dish, popcorn, toast, cheesy sauce, or even alone. 10/10 taste, didn’t try it for years because the name sounded gross, don’t sleep on these they’re incredible 😭 I’ve tried several brands but these are the best imho, consistent texture, intense flavor and a spoonable amount.

Een zeer goed produkt . Maar is duur voor een klein potje maak het voordeliger zou ik zeggen dank je wel

heel goed

Si bien esta principalmente pensado como condimento alimenticio para humanos, se puede usar en dietas BARF para, por ejemplo, gatos, añadiendo tanto vitaminas como "sabor" (y olor) extra a la comida preparada casera. Al nuestro al menos le encanta.

While the Bragg Premium Nutritional Yeast isn't the cheapest option, it's still a fair price for the quality. It has a great flavor and is absolutely delicious on popcorn! A little sprinkle goes a long way, and it adds a nice cheesy taste without the dairy. Definitely a pantry staple for flavoring snacks!

I've been cheese deprived for so long due to GI issues so this has been an amazing substitute. I add it to almost everything! It reminds me of parmesan. LOVE IT.
