How to get fortified B12 in diet?

I take a multivit with B12 but I’m not a fan of cereal, so I don’t know if I’m getting enough and would like to get some more from my diet if I can. Are there any particular fortified products anyone would recommend?

Not a fortified product, but I use a B12 supplement spray that you spray under your tongue - might that help?

Nutritional yeast (aka nooch) is a great vegan source. Often used to give a cheese like flavour in cooking. I like it sprinkled onto pasta dishes or a jacket potato, but not everyone does (it does look like fish food so you have to be able to get past that lol)
Marmite is another good source

Do not rely on good sources . You need to supplement veganhealth.org/vitamin-b12/ .
Eating cereal, yoghurt fortified in b12 is not much different than taking a supplement.
B12 deficiency can cause irreversible damage. So take a supplement 1000ug 3 Times a week
