Nutritional Yeast in bulk

[Coney]

Whenever I see nutritional yeast in the HFS, it's always $13 for a jar. I stand there shocked at the price.

I did a search on "bulk foods" when I was looking for nuts, and found this site that sells nutritional yeast for less than $9 per pound. A pound of nutritional yeast is A LOT of nutritional yeast!

Have I said "nutritional yeast" enough in this post yet? If not... nutritional yeast.

I can't believe how expensive it is!! I can't remember exaclty what I pay per pound, I just remember that it's a lot!

yeah--i buy from bulkfood.com all the time. i usually buy 5lbs at a time of n.y. and buy gluten flour from there as well, as i use a ton of both. a good bulk site for sure.

It's somewhere in the $6-$7/lbs range here. I get 26% off on top of that as well... good thing.. I go through a lot of the stuff (and VWG, as smedley mentioned)

I hope there's no such thing as consuming too much nutritional yeast...I use a lot, every day!

there isnt--i have done the research and cross-referenced it with a bunch of other important studies that clearly show on a likert scale of 1-200 that you can never consume too much n.y.:lick:

oooohhh--cool party trick--i hadnt thought of that!:idea: i am thinking you need a hobby!!! maybe catch horse pee before races for testing to make sure the horses werent drugged. stuffed horses hooked up with something that used to make those dolls pee in old days. otherwise, it wouldnt be veg*n.

I don't know what brand the bulk nutritional yeast is at the co-op here (we don't have a whole foods), but it's delicious.

How long does it take for you go through 5lbs of nutritional yeast?

ohh i dont know--maybe 2 months. but i cook most everything from scratch and use a ton of it in many different recipes!!

do i need a degree to be a pee collector??
or would i have to be all covert and shady going about the horses' backsides? :tame:
