  1. Nah what is really crazy is they realized you can inoculate or seed different things with the "mother". They isolated the good bacteria versus the bad bacteria. I mean desperation is the mother of invention and we see this with fermented foods. Using yesterday's bread to get the good yeast to help new bread taste better or rise quicker. Using the right kind of soured milk to add to new milk for kefir or buttermilk! All of them last significant longer and can be stored. They also can be dangerous if you don't do it right, and that's so crazy. What is even more mind boggling to me though is them figuring out what PH levels work to stop terrible things... Was this done by pure trial or error or did they have some methodology to it!? Thank God we can pass on knowledge eh? Makes you wonder who these pioneering dudes were who experimented with everything... They didn't just say something is poison and leave it alone, but they kept at it trying to make it useful through whatever means they had. How much stuff do we enjoy today that is harmful in its natural state?!
