Microorganism poop and bee puke

Thank you for this brilliant post - it was fun to read! Microorganism poop has never put me off. Neither has bee puke - or honey, as most people would call it :-)

Fermentation can do even more

Just a few more thoughts: we also use fermenters to produce drugs such as insulin or penicillin - and to produce other substances, which we use on a nearly daily basis such as citric acid or flavouring agents. Also, fermentation is part of sewage treatment and biogas production. Bacteria and fungi are fascinating living beings!

Looking forward to your next post!
