So, what is levure torula?
Levure torula is a yeast-based food ingredient that is commonly used as a flavor enhancer and a source of nutrients. It is made from the waste products of the beer brewing process and has a unique, savory taste that is often described as meaty or umami. Levure torula is rich in protein, B vitamins, and minerals, making it a popular ingredient in vegan and vegetarian diets. It is often used in processed foods, such as snacks, seasonings, and sauces, as well as in pet food and animal feed. Levure torula is a natural alternative to artificial flavorings and additives, and is a sustainable ingredient choice due to its use of brewery waste.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
