I've been watching my nutrition to be sure I get all my vitamins. Does anyone know why B12 is not one of the vitimans listed on the nutrition facts? I am vegan, so B12 is something I need to watch. Thank you in advance for advice.

    You can only get B12 by eating fortified foods as a vegan.

    Nutritional yeast tends to have it added as does many plant based "milks"

    You can just take a supplement to ensure you get enough.

    If you're supplementing, you're fine...if you're not supplementing, you need to.
