Web Exercise


1. Microbial fermentation to produce food has been exploited for thousands of years. Search the Internet to find information on fermented foods so that you can assemble a menu like one that might be found in a restaurant. Be sure to start with items that may be included in salads, then soups, entrees, deserts and beverages.

2. Go to the U.S. Food and Drug administration web site and find out the source of Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, and Acanthamoeba spp. and the diseases they cause.
