I sprinkle yeast on my popcorn, but it's Nutritional Yeast... not baking yeast. same with the marmite/vegemite.. totally different kinds of yeast. Not interchangeable.

Hmmm...maybe I'm getting my yeasts mixed up. Nutritional yeast and baking yeast are two different things I gather. So, it maybe wouldn't be a good idea to add it to other foods?

Hi--Two different yeasts, for sure :) The nutritional yeast is quite yellow and flat, flaky. The bread yeast is more tan and granular. Nutritional is great on popcorn, for example. The bread stuff should only be used for bread. My guess is that eating it plain would lead to stomach upset and bloating.

Yikes, bloating does not sound appealing! I think I'll stick to facials with it!
