So, what is fermèntos lácticos?
Fermèntos lácticos, also known as lactic acid bacteria, are essential ingredients in the production of a wide range of fermented dairy products such as yogurt, kefir, and cheese. These beneficial bacteria convert lactose, the natural sugar found in milk, into lactic acid, which helps to acidify the product, giving it a tangy and slightly sour flavor. Additionally, fermentos lácticos can contribute to the development of complex flavors and textures, as well as offer potential health benefits such as improved digestion and immune system function. These versatile microorganisms are a cornerstone of traditional food preservation techniques and have been used for centuries in various cultures around the world.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
