the only thing i'd change about 'em is to make 'em easier to spread, they have a rubbery quality about 'em.

So during WWII there were food shortages and so somebody came up with the bright idea to create a healthy food rich in vitamin B1 by collecting the black yeast residue from brewing beer and bottling it as children's food to spread on bread.

It has a salty taste but not too high. There is a low salt version for older people with hypertension.

I imagine there wouldn't be a demand for this product in north America but it might be special gournet stores that sell imported food products.
