Bragg Premium Nutritional Yeast Seasoning - Vegan, Gluten Free – Good Source of Protein & Vitamins – Nutritious Savory Parmesan Cheese Substitute (Original, 4.5 Ounce (Pack of 2))

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 product is a wonderful substitute for grated cheese. I purchase this for my wife, who is vegan and she loves the versatility, taste, freshness, and value that this product offers. Bragg products are well known for quality and value. We use this 12 oz package to refill a smaller shaker for convenience. Highly recommended!

I like it taste like cheese. Really good source of natural b vitamins. Great for your body.

Love this stuff so much! I sprinkle it onto popcorn all the time, but just realized it tastes great with mac n cheese too!

Great product with a delicious taste! 💛 It’s a perfect alternative for those of us who have to seek out different food options. I love using it as a Parmesan cheese substitute—it adds a wonderful savory flavor to meals. Definitely a staple in my kitchen!

I use this yeast and a lot of of the things that I make, and it is better than others that I have used. This is a good quality for its price and has very little added flavor.

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.

Love this stuff - great on popcorn and pizza; I use it in place of parm in homemade pesto. You can’t beat the nutrition.

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.
