• Used in making bread, beer, and wine
• Importance in history
  – Bread became a staple food
  – Alcoholic beverages prevent bacteria from
    growing: made water safe to drink
Lactic acid fermentation

Why ferment food?
• Preserves food
Why ferment food?
• Preserves food
• Adds protein, vitamins and flavor
Effect on history
• Once humans were able to preserve food
  through fermentation, they were able to store
  food for long periods
Effect on history
• Once humans were able to preserve food
