I highly recommend this brand! 1. Foods Alive (The Winner!) 2. SariFoods (a very close 2nd) 3. Dr. Berg (pretty good, although a bit less flavorful than the other 2) 4. NatureBell (terrible, tastes like paper) Background: I've used nutritional yeast in my recipes for years (there's a salad dressing you can make with it that’s surprisingly good). However, I have to make an extra effort to avoid nutritional yeast that’s fortified with synthetic B-vitamins. Using too much of the fortified kind reliably gives me unpleasant side effects like overstimulation, anxiety, sleeplessness, etc. So, SariFoods was my go-to brand for years. Their nutritional yeast tastes amazing and is emphatically non-fortified. Just straight nutritional yeast. Nothing else added. However, I was perusing desertcart one day and saw that Naturebell had a non-fortified nutritional yeast that was a lot cheaper per ounce. So I decided to give it a try. Huge mistake. I was shocked to find out that the taste between SariFoods' & Naturebell’s nutritional yeast was radically different. Like night and day. One of them (Naturebell’s) tasted like stale cardboard, while the other (SariFoods) had an insanely cheesy/nutty/umami flavor that was a potent flavor enhancer to every dish or sauce it was added to. Which led me to do this taste-test experiment comparing two more (4 total) non-fortified brands of nutritional yeast that you can find on desertcart. The Experiment: Each nutritional yeast was weighed out to approximately 3.5 grams*. Then I added 1/2th Tbsp of neutral oil & 1 Tbsp of warm water to each, and shook them vigorously to create an emulsion. (*I initially tried the experiment with equal volumes instead of equal weights until I realized that some of them are much denser than others. For example, on one extreme, FoodsAlive weighs ≈ 3.7 grams per 1/2th Tbsp, whereas Dr. Berg was only 2.2 grams per 1/2th Tbsp). Initial observations: Dr. Berg, FoodsAlive, and SariFoods had a more "natural"-looking, dark-beige color. Once emulsified, FoodsAlive revealed an even richer/darker color than the other two. NatureBell’s nutritional yeast, on the other hand, was much brighter & yellow in color. Dr. Berg’s was the flakiest (which explains why it weighed the least by volume) followed by NatureBell being the 2nd most flakey. FoodsAlive & SariFoods were more powdery & dense although they still had a general flakey-ness to them. Taste: In my opinion, FoodsAlive is the clear winner here. It was the most intensely flavorful and captured the essence of what I think nutritional yeast should taste like (cheesy, yeasty, slightly nutty, and undeniably umami). SariFoods was a very close second. Both FoodsAlive and SariFoods tasted the “cheesiest” in my opinion. Dr. Berg came in third. Nothing wrong with it. It was still pretty flavorful and tasty, just not as potent as the other two. NatureBell is the clear loser here, unfortunately. It tasted terrible like stale cardboard. I think something went wrong with their yeast growing operation. Or possibly they cut it with some cheap adulterant to save on costs. I don't know. But regardless of the reason, the flavor was simultaneously awful and bland. It had none of the complex cheesy/nutty/umami flavor that is recognizable as nutritional yeast to me. Also, I think it’s interesting to note the odd, vivid yellow color compared to the other three. Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) has an intense orange-ish/yellow color. Often times, nutritional yeast that IS fortified with B-vitamins, is more bright & yellow because of the addition of synthetic riboflavin. I cannot say for certain whether or not NatureBell actually did fortify their nutritional yeast with synthetic riboflavin (it’s possible that the color is just naturally occurring), but I think it's something to note. Disclaimer: I do not work for, nor am I associated in any way with SariFoods, FoodsAlive, Dr. Berg, or NatureBell. This was an independent test that I performed in my spare time and the results are based on my own taste which is highly subjective. I highly recommend you repeat this test on your own to compare results. Also, this test is not comprehensive. There are several other brands of non-fortified nutritional yeast on desertcart that I did not test but would like to in the future (Anthony's, LOOV, and MicroIngredients to name a few other brands).

I’ve tried several and it has a good taste I sprinkle it on my food. ## Features - Nutrition-packed, plant-based superfood: Our Nutritional Yeast is full of the good stuff, from B vitamins to protein and fiber.

Most vegans want nutritional yeast for this purpose (and the cheese sub). Any idea?** A: B12 is a poison unless you get it from natural sources like bacterial fermentation or animal source. As a vegan you should get it from bacterial fermentation. I don't know who told you to get B12 but if you look in Amazon they sell fortified yeast, with tons of B12 as 1/3rd the price. If you want poison then go ahead and buy the cheap junk with synthetic B12. **Q: Is it organic?** A: Since most Nutritional Yeast is cheaper and attempting to mislead by stating that it is grown with non-gmo yeast, I pay multiple times more for Sari Nutritional Yeast (though barely affordable for a blue collar family) because of the following personal email resoponse Feb 9, 2018: "I would like to let you know that our Non-Fortified Nutritional Yeast is grown naturally on a combination of Non-GMO sugar beet and sugar cane molasses. Please let me know if you have any other questions, Todd. We take our customer service to heart at Sari Foods and we are happy to share the information that our customers need in order to make informed decisions about what they put into their bodies. Best Regards, Johnny Sari Foods Company" also "I'd like to let you know that our Non-fortified Nutritional Yeast is grown on a mixture of sugar beet and sugar cane molasses here in the U.S. We really appreciate your concerns around genetically modified sugar beet molasses, it's a concern that we share and is one of the main reasons we set out to create a company that produced honestly non-fortified and organic products and had a transparent customer service policy in communicating about them. I want to reassure you that whilst most sugar beet molasses are genetically modified, at Sari Foods we do not believe in these methods. Furthermore, we regularly test our nutritional yeast (along with all our other products) to ensure only the highest quality. We test each batch for toxic metals, contaminants and other organisms. Our results show no contaminants, no detectable levels of lead and no GMO protein or DNA in the raw materials used as growth substrate. In addition, our product is 100% whole food based and naturally occurring, and due to the conditions Sari Foods nutritional yeast is grown in, it makes for a yeast that is naturally nutrient dense and does not need additional fortification. Whilst our nutritional yeast may cost slightly more than some others, this is due to our unique status as a Non-fortified Nutritional Yeast option, we go against the market norm. This means that we deviate from the standard manufacturing process and require special techniques and procedures in order to create this special product without the synthetic additives. Kind regards Abby Sari Foods Company" Sep 25, 2017 **Q: What is the free glutamic acid content of this product?** A: You might want to contact the company. The other info of interest is at mysolluna.com where Kimberly Snyder (a NY Times best selling author and nutritionist) has a great article on Nutritional Yeast and addresses the question of glutamic acid as it is naturally occurring in Nutritional Yeast. She addresses a lot of other commonly asked questions about it there. **Q: Does it contain glutamic acid?** A: Thanks for the question! Our Non-Fortified Natural Yeast contains 92mg/g of naturally occurring glutamic acid. Glutamic acid is an amino acid and amino acids are crucial in the human body. Unlike toxic and synthetic MSG which is synthesised by chemically altering natural glutamic acid, glutamic acid in its original form is not harmful and our bodies are designed to utilize a certain amount of it. We hope that helps! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Close Runner-Up in Experiment Comparing 4 Different Brands of Non-Fortified Nutritional Yeast! *by S***M on March 14, 2024* In short, I designed an experiment comparing the taste of 4 different non-fortified nutritional yeast brands (standardized by weight, and emulsified in neutral oil & water to taste) and found that SariFoods was a fantastic tasting nutritional yeast and a very close runner-up to FoodsAlive (which was just slightly tastier).
