Anyone use it?
I saw some at the store the other day. It was a vegan parmesean cheese substitute. It had nutritional yeast and crushed walnuts. It smelled ok, but the price was kinda steep for a small spice bottle.
What is it good on? Is it even worth getting?

Plus i read that it's good for vitamin b12 so there's energy right there.

lefty, you must be crazy or not using enough if you don't think it adds much flavour to things.... but then i saturate my food in it.
toast + butter + avocado +nutriotional yeast, salt and pepper = best quickie breakfast ever
centrum- plain old nutritional yeast is probably a little bit cheaper than vegan parmesan cheese replacer. try to find it at a healthfood store.

Vegan Cheese recipe

These recipes I may have to try in the future.
I like adding some to toast, gives a parmesan taste to the food. Not as pungent, a little..well, beerish/marmite'y
