Description
Nutritional yeast has always been heralded as a highly nutritious food source, but is it really? Or has nutritional yeast only just gotten good for us because the word ‘nutritional’ was placed in front of the yeast and we are being fooled? These days nutritional yeast is thrown on almost everything that is in the healthy snack food arena to give fun foods an extra tasty kick.

Sounds so good and innocent, doesn’t it? But what is it that we don’t know about this fortified tasty yeast? What is it we should know?
