Beer’s similar: Give beer sugars, the yeast generates poison to try and prevent other microorganisms from surviving and eventually the yeast poisons its own environment enough that it can no longer continue living.

Sounds like humans and yeast have a lot in common.
Guys… are we fermenting someone’s galaxy?

It’s even worse when you bake sourdough. I’ve been cultivating that yeast colony, caring for it, loving it. It thinks I care, but it’s only being prepared for slaughter.

sourdough
yeast colony
Bacterial colony, no?
Also, you kill only half of them each time. For the sourdough starter, it’s like a Thanos-snap coin-flip everytime you bake bread. The bacteria in your current sourdough starter come from a long line of statistically lucky ancestors.
I suppose that’s kind of true for all of us, though…

It’s fine they wouldn’t have lived at all otherwise.
You gave them the gift of a happy life and a purpose.
That’s more than most of us get
