They have brewer’s yeast almost everywhere that they have nutritional yeast, including Whole Foods (right next to the nutritional yeast in the big cans). I have a hard time finding powdered nutritional yeast in stores and always have to order it online (I think it tastes cheezier than the flake stuff)

Oooh, I’ve seen folks talk about brewer’s yeast and always assumed it was the same as nooch. Where can you find it?

Earth Balance! Such a good one!

Nooch is heavenly. My friends use brewer’s yeast too, which has a more earthy, smoky flavor but is also pretty darn good. I’d add Earth Balance to the list, maybe more so than Veganaise since I use it more. Though Veganaise is so so so good…

Katie – Oooh flax seeds! That’s a good one.

LazySmurf – I’ve noticed that, too! I wonder if it’s our bodies missing the B12? Or it could just be the magic of nooch!

It is weird how the longer I am vegan the more I like nutritional yeast. They are directly proportional.

I agree with everything but the mayo. I hate that stuff. Replace that with falxseed, and that’s my list too!

Sure! The sauce portion from this recipe for Macaroni and Peas is out of control delicious and super easy!

Do you have a good recipe for cheese sauce made with Nutritional Yeast? I’m looking to try one soon!
