Brewer's Yeast in the fridge?


Can someone clarify this line for me. When they are out front of the gallery and she slaps him and calls him a bastard, he utters something about her having brewer's yeast in the fridge? is that like because she's supposed to be old? I don get it...

I was wondering that too! Is Brewers yeast something a health fanatic would take perhaps?

I always assumed it was some sort of euphemism for yeast infection...

I just watched it and was wondering the exact same thing. She was really pissed when he said it so it must be bad but I don’t get it.

Bonnie was probably taking Brewer's Yeast as an appetite suppressant, for the same reason people drink apple cider vinegar these days. Although, I too don't get the connection to SPAM, and why this remark sparked such an illicit response from Bonnie.

I think this is only something a woman from the 1980's could explain to us.
