... and
they didn't even know it!
Sumerians and Egyptians
made cheese, wine, beer
and bread. They knew that
grape juice left in a
container over time
changed to wine. They knew
that bread dough would
rise and that milk stored
in containers made from
calf or goat stomachs would
change to cheese. They
didn't realize that yeast was
responsible for the wine and
dough, or that digestive
enzymes left over in the
calf stomachs curdled the
milk, forming cheese.
