There are a couple of savory throwbacks from my childhood that I’m thrilled I can now share with my virtual farmkids…
Kefir, which is now marketed as “probiotic” and a healthy part of a weight loss routine. I just remember it being a milkshake that my parents didn’t cringe at serving me.
And, then there’s a favorite that my husband still can’t quite understand: nutritional yeast.
I admit it has a sort of strange flavor at first, but it’s addictive. I love it sprinkled on eggs or better yet as a substitute for butter on popcorn.
I was thrilled to learn that enough vegetarians enjoy nutritional yeast that movie theaters are adding it as a topping in some places.
When I was a kid, we’d pop a grocery bag full of popcorn, sprinkle it with salt and yeast and smuggle it into the theater.
Yum. I think I’ll have some tonight.
