    If you haven’t tried nutritional yeast (aka "nooch" in the vegan world) don’t give up after the first try. For me it was an acquired taste, and I had to try several brands before I found one I like, which I order on Amazon since my local store doesn’t stock it. It was worth it to find the brand I like — it’s a very versatile flavor enhancer. Many vegans say it tastes like cheese — for me it doesn’t, but does add a nice umami touch to many recipes.
