Dutch oven sandwich in every bite

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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 8 months ago

Makes more sense than orthodox religions actually

And they feed on microplastics and ionizing radiation.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Then we drink their poison on purpose, as if in mockery

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Love that poop water

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Is there any reason why yeast does that or it is just a random fact?

[–] [email protected] 32 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 8 months ago (2 children)

So, by that logic, it's ok if one day you eat your teenage child?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Yes, but it HAS to be before they turn 20 or else they overripen

[–] [email protected] 5 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 8 months ago (1 children)

sourdough

yeast colony

Bacterial colony, no?

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...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Bacterial colony, no?

It's both yeast and bacteria.

A bit afraid of asking for your prompt

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Just asked for more after this

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Nice. The only thing that would make this better is if you asked for yeast cells instead of bacteria, since yeast are fungi.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Uhh

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Lmao chatgpt needs to learn what yeast cells look like. Thanks for doing that, though!

[–] [email protected] 23 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yeast for the yeast god

That's like, yenocide.

Guess I'm an anti-yeastite!

[–] [email protected] 19 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Reminds me of the old one with fried chicken: let me bathe you in your dead child.

Oyakodon: "parent-and-child donburi"

[–] [email protected] 12 points 8 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Share a thought for all the genetically engineered bacteria strains that produce essencial products to maintain our colective civilization.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

This comment section is better than the post itself.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

What's wrong with that? The yeasts are being baked after all...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Bread is murder.
