About NUTRITIONAL YEAST
Wegmans Nutritional Yeast is a deactivated dried yeast fortified with niacin, B6, thiamin, riboflavin, folic acid, and cyanocobalamin (B12), making it one of the few plant-based sources of complete B vitamins including B12. Protein content is remarkably high for a seasoning-style ingredient, and the fiber content is substantial as well. The flavor is savory, nutty, and often described as cheese-like, which is why it has become a staple in vegan cooking for adding depth to sauces, pasta, and popcorn. A genuinely useful pantry ingredient beyond just supplementation.
