And yeast (via gut bacteria). I’m pretty sure we have been cultivated to breed more of them, not our decision just because they’re delicious.

- BurningFrog 5y agoIf we've "been cultivated", they're delicious because our (non) ancestors who didn't like the taste got weeded out by evolution.
- Terry_Roll 5y agoBacteria that's crossed the blood brain barrier can affect behaviour. In European woman, the most common bacteria in a woman's vagina's is Lactobacillus largely due to the milk product consumption in their die. However whilst Western medicine considers Lactobacillus to be a probiotic, other cultures who do not consume milk products in as large a quantity have different bacterial profiles in their vagina's. Japanese people claim to be able to smell gone off milk oozing from the pores of westerners. The presence of a particular strain of bacteria (whose name I dont have to hand right now) in a woman's vagina will also predict whether they have freckles or not. Biology is a fascinating subject and very much open to debate.

- JohnBooty 5y agoJapanese people claim to be able to smell gone off milk oozing from the pores of westerners. Not just Japanese who claim this; I've heard this from non-Japanese Asians as well. I think I remember hearing that there were some specific derogatory terms for Westerners based on this smell, but I could be wrong.
