KAL Imported Yeast Flakes, 14.8 Ounce

I fell in love with nutritional yeast recently and have been using it regularly. It is delicious on soup and green salads! I'm also trying to get more nutrition from the foods I eat, and this fits the bill. So tasty. I cannot eat dairy and so this sort of so-called cheese replacer is umami flavor that is good for you! I like the imported, unfortified kind just because I like things in their natural state and would rather get my supplemental vitamins somewhere else. I researched and picked this brand because of it's reputation. However, I would use the fortified kind also, but maybe not long term or maybe I'd switch it up every so often. I can't tell the difference in taste between fortified and unfortified, and I love this stuff so much I sometimes just eat it by the spoonful when I am craving something tasty but don't want to eat a bunch of unnecessary calories.

I bought this because it is unfortified and non-GMO. It has a great taste. Nutritional yeast from the store tastes so overpowering and a bit too tart, probably due to the added B vitamins. This variety gives a much improved flavor to food over the generic store-bought type. I have always loved it on popcorn, but this imported yeast is delicious on pasta (something that I never really warmed up to with the store bought kind) and my favorite: kale massaged with olive oil, minced garlic, S&P, maybe some fresh herbs thrown in, and then tossed in this.When I bought it from seller VitaminLife, they sent me a 14.8 ounce can instead of the 28 ounce can. When I emailed them about it they offered me a 50% refund on the item price, which I gladly accepted. I only wish I could get more of this at half off - $16 plus $6 shipping for a 14.8 ounce can is expensive. The seller has since removed their listing, as they informed me the company no longer makes the 28 ounce can. When I finish this can I will probably go onto LuckyVitamin's website and spend $50 on this and Dr. Woods soaps so I can get free shipping and stock up on those items. This seems to be the most cost effective way to buy this product currently.

I enjoy putting this on popcorn. I also put it on quinoa and in several other dishes that I make and it just gives it a nice flavor. It does take some getting used to at first. Hang in there and I'm sure you will enjoy it.

I am am excited to start holiday barking from scratch with my grown daughter this year!! Love the compact size of the container! Perfect for my small kitchen!

A huge container with a shockingly small amount. Due to settling possibly? but just be aware that the container is not full, not even close.

I use this all the time.

Makes your food cheesy and gooey and delicious. And I've noticed its effect on my body, now it's a staple of my diet.These fine flakes are nuttier than the regular flakes. The regular, non-imported ones give an even more cheesy texture. But I love both. Whether vegan, vegetarian, carnivore or whatever: buy this for yourself.

I would have waited to write this review since I have not been able to try this product. Let me preface this by saying that I have used and loved KAL NUTRITIONAL YEAST and only stopped buying it because I have medical problems the require me to avoid folic acid which is added to the regular version (enriched). I was thrilled to find out that there was an imported version that is not enriched. Also I need to avoid gluten now. So I found it here and ordered what I though was a Great deal, 28 oz and Gluten-free too. Unfortunately that is not what I received. I received a 14 oz can that is not labeled gluten free. So I emailed the vender ( VitaminLife ) and they are certainly willing to let me return it and were very nice about it . They claim the manufacturer had changed this product and did not notify them. So I called KAL and left a message since it was the weekend and they were closed. When I hear from them and or when the product information and picture are corrected I will change my rating. It is still not clear if this product is gluten free or why I received a product half this size. No doubt It is delicious.2/24/14 I did talk to KAL and they only carry 14 oz cans of this imported yeast now. Additionally this product is NOT CERTIFIED gluten free anymore. It does not have any gluten but it is also not tested! Requested that the seller corrects the product info here.
