Fermentation vs Canning | Vibepedia

Fermentation and canning are two distinct methods of food preservation. Fermentation involves the action of microorganisms such as bacteria, yeast, or mold, and has been used to preserve foods such as sauerkraut, kimchi, and yogurt. Canning involves heating food to a high temperature to kill off bacteria and other microorganisms, then sealing it in airtight containers. The debate between fermentation and canning is ongoing, with proponents of each method arguing over issues such as food safety, nutritional value, and environmental impact.
