Hey Tina. Just a heads up iheartgiantschnauzer is on vacation out of the country.

For what it's worth I've been in her house a LOT. She uses nutritional yeast flakes and shakes them on top of things like I would sprinkle parmesan cheese shavings. She sneaks it into salad dressings, onto kale chips, on top of air popped popcorn, and into some soups or entrees. I've never seen her take it by the spoonful.

Thank you Nashville! I didn't realize she had already left on her trip.

Here is why I thought she took it by the spoonful:

"I do not usually eat 2 tbsp at a time unless making some dressing or sauces, but 1 tbsp still gives a benefit! I also do not rely on this as my primary source of b12. For that I take a sublingual supplement." (From IHGS in the healthy eating thread)

HAHAHA reading back over it I guess she is meaning putting 1 or 2 TBSP in a dressing/sauce???

Thanks for answering - I ordered the capsules and also the flakes.

PS - Do you and IHGS live in Tennessee? Curious because I am in TN.

Tina-

I live in TN, but IHGS lives outside of Indianapolis.

Hmm not sure what she meant. I know she makes a butternut squash macaroni that has 1/2 cup nutritional yeast in it for 4 people. she also uses more than 2 tbsp in a vegan ceasar salad dressing etc. So in those meals an individual would eat more than 2 TBSP in a portion. When she sprinkles it on a bowl of popcorn, she probably eats 1 tbsp.

We have recently started using it. We aren't vegans or even vegetarian, but we are cooking more and more vegetarian meals. Most of the time we just use it salad dressings, dips or sprinkled in bread coatings or on roasted vegetables. My husband and daughter like it on popcorn, but I don't.
