Foods that starts with y

Not to be confused with Anaerobic respiration. Fermentation in progress: carbon dioxide foods that starts with y form a froth on top of the fermentation mixture.

Fermentation is a metabolic process that produces chemical changes in organic substrates through the action of enzymes. In microorganisms, fermentation is the primary means of producing adenosine triphosphate by the degradation of organic nutrients anaerobically. Humans have used fermentation to produce foodstuffs and beverages since the Neolithic age. Industrial fermentation is a more broader term used for the process of applying microbes for the large-scale production of chemicals, biofuels, enzymes, proteins and pharmaceuticals.
