Beer’s similar: Give beer sugars, the yeast generates poison to try and prevent other microorganisms from surviving and eventually the yeast poisons its own environment enough that it can no longer continue living.
It's even worse when you bake sourdough. I've been cultivating that yeast colony, caring for it, loving it. It thinks I care, but it's only being prepared for slaughter.
Also, you kill only half of them each time. For the sourdough starter, it's like a Thanos-snap coin-flip everytime you bake bread. The bacteria in your current sourdough starter come from a long line of statistically lucky ancestors.
I suppose that's kind of true for all of us, though...
You eat their little farts trapped in the dough, you know that?
You are disgusting.
That ain't the only farts I'm eating, honey
Hey, don't kinkshame us!
Your either a smart fella or live long enough to become a fart sniffa

Don't kink shame
Dutch oven sandwich in every bite

Sounds like humans and yeast have a lot in common.
Guys.... are we fermenting someone's galaxy?
We're terraforming the planet for an alien species that breathes carbon dioxide.
Makes more sense than orthodox religions actually
And they feed on microplastics and ionizing radiation.
Then we drink their poison on purpose, as if in mockery
Love that poop water
Is there any reason why yeast does that or it is just a random fact?
It's fine they wouldn't have lived at all otherwise.
You gave them the gift of a happy life and a purpose.
That's more than most of us get
So, by that logic, it's ok if one day you eat your teenage child?
Yes, but it HAS to be before they turn 20 or else they overripen
I want a thigh
Dibs feet

Bacterial colony, no?

It's both yeast and bacteria.
Yeast for the yeast god
A bit afraid of asking for your prompt
Just asked for more after this
Nice. The only thing that would make this better is if you asked for yeast cells instead of bacteria, since yeast are fungi.
Uhh
Lmao chatgpt needs to learn what yeast cells look like. Thanks for doing that, though!
That's like, yenocide.
Guess I'm an anti-yeastite!
Reminds me of the old one with fried chicken: let me bathe you in your dead child.
Oyakodon: "parent-and-child donburi"
Well, I'm disgusted. Good job.
I'm just hungry.

Thats some high quality shit here.
Understood from that post even more than from my biology class.
Share a thought for all the genetically engineered bacteria strains that produce essencial products to maintain our colective civilization.
This comment section is better than the post itself.
What's wrong with that? The yeasts are being baked after all...
Bread is murder.
