fermentation of commercial products

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I agree also. A while back I read that many of the commercial brands do

some type of sterilization again after they have made the yogurt. So in the

process of completely sterilizing the yogurt, all the friendly " bugs " are

either stunned or killed.

I am so glad I don't have to eat that junk! I guess most people are just to

busy and too uninterested to pay much attention to their food.

I kept trying to get my dad interested in kefir but had no luck. Then I got

the fil mjolk (that he remembered from childhood) and he saw how easy it was

to make. Now he has a fresh cup every morning.

You just have to sneak-up on some people.
