@seed: Historically, fall harvest marked a time when food needed to be preserved for the winter, and fermentation was a popular method to do this. Now, fermentation is back in fashion¹ (it's estimated that fermented foods account for nearly one-third of the human diet² 🤯). Foods and drinks like kombucha, kefir, sauerkraut, miso, kimchi, raw cheese, yogurt, sourdough bread, wine, and beer are all made through fermentation. They’re popular all over the world not just for their unique taste, but also because they can offer a range of potential benefits.¹ Like what, you ask?
