(the other images make sense to me - but that one - maybe because I don't know what it is, don't know why someone would want it?)

It seemed like a block of yeast to me, which is used for baking, baking bread, etc. I know that in some countries people bought all of the yeast in supermarkets (fearing shortage, just like with toiletpaper), so it might be because of this. Just a guess, though.  :D

It's a block of brewer's yeast. During the lockdown here in Italy it became really difficult to find, so while making some bread at home I took a photo of it (a couple actually, but this is the one that sold the most).

ah, okay, haha, lol! i guess here we don't sell that - so I've never seen it before... I thought it was some kind of broken marble brick or something!

It was hard to find in US right now also, but you can still bay in some stores. You can by dry or fresh.
