Cool fact. You know all the things, Boffers!
I wonder if a sprinkle of nutritional yeast would work too?
Miss_Mouse-
Might well do - think it's the same thing, except the brewers stuff is still activated? No more than 1tsp a day.
I know the brewer's yeast trick because my sister and I used to feed our cats (half a billion of them, it felt like) a raw food diet, but you need to take a bit of care over the nutritional components of a raw food diet because just flopping a raw steak into a bowl isn't really going to cut it. Brewer's yeast was one of the additions, ostensibly because it provides vitamins, but it turns out it's also really tasty.
You know those videos where somebody is on a farm and they have a bucket full of feed and they're trying to put it down for some goats, and the goats have surrounded them and they're all like "give us the feed, worthless human, no, not the way you're doing but BETTER and FASTER, goddamn you"? Getting the brewer's yeast out was a bit like that.

You could also try putting water on the kibble, cornflakes with milk style. He might hate it, but he might tolerate it. Or might even like it, as cats are weirdos.
You might be able to persuade him to eat more wet food if you mix things into the wet food. Kibble, for eg. One of my cats used to like a sprinkling of brewer's yeast on her food, and it's my understanding that brewer's yeast is part of the crack cocktail that pet food companies put on kibble to make it tasty, so you could try getting creative with that. I used the stuff from Holland and Barrett: http://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/holland-barrett-brewers-yeast-powder-60002270
