Hi everybody! My question is pretty much what the title says. I have no first-hand experience with nutritional yeast, but I’ve seen a lot of vegan youtubers add it to their meals and I thought I’d try it. However, when I went to order it, I saw that is was being marketed as “vegan cheese” and having a strong cheese-like flavor, and my problem is that cheese is an extremely unsafe food for me. I can’t eat cheese-flavored things that don’t contain actual cheese either. Well, I’ve eaten crackers with mild cheese flavor before because I had to, but I did not enjoy it at all :D I would still like to at least try nutritional yeast, but I don’t want to throw the whole pack away if I end up not liking it, so I’d rather not buy it at all if the taste is actually similar to cheese. I’m also afraid the smell will throw me off.

(for reference, I was going to try adding it to creamy soups and stuff like that so it would be blended into a smooth consistency)
