I read somewhere, I think*, that someone put an envelope of dry bread yeast into his boiling wort. The yeast of course died, but the purpose of doing so was supposedly to give the beer yeast something to eat as it was starting work.
Is there anything to this? I would think adding BrewVint or whatever it's called (yeast fuel) would be as good or better. Is this true? And further, if you do a starter, isn't this superflous?

*Or, I could just be crazy. Wouldn't be the first time.
