Does anyone know the diff. between Brewers yeast and Nutritional Yeast?

[Guest guest]

Is this the same thing?

Hi Gina,

 

These two animals are very different.

 

Brewer's yeast is created in the brewing industry. It's nutty, and

naturally full of great B vitamins. Many vegetarians, like me, find a

way to work some in our daily diet. (When we remember.)

 

Nutritional yeast may also have B vitamins - if it's supplemented.

It's yellow and has a very distinct, nutty-but-cheesey taste. This is

the one used as a cheese substitute in many products for vegans. And

very good on popcorn. It's considered savory, and I've used it in

" creamy " soup recipes that are actually dairy free.

 

Hope that helps,

Christina
