#3I read about fermented foods being good, like the old days.
Sauerkraut, kimchi, kombucha, kefir. None of which sounded like something my celtic ancesters eat. Beer, cider, bread maybe. I see a disconnect.

Surströmming, sursill, hákarl...

Pickles veggies are made by just leaving veggies under brine at room temp, I am sure they had some form of that.

#6Get some Florastor and put a couple of capsules into juice. Wait 24-48 hours. Drink. Delicious! Very fizzy and fun. Reduced sugar.
Good for the gut and immune system. Use it when my kids have GI distress/diarrhea or just as a treat/reward.
I like it way more than Kambucha and it never has vinegar worms.
Can buy some yeast energizer too on Amazon for a great boost.
* I get the Florastor has & bloat personally b/c I figure the enzymes might help and I find it’s a little cheaper somehow, sometimes. https://www.amazon.com/Florastor-Advanced-Probiotic-Digestiv...
I like apple cider, pasteurized is fine but must be preservative free. OJ is fun, comes out as orangina like, but tastes off too quickly.

I have zero trust in products on Amazon not being a counterfeit there's no way I'd buy something intended for me to eat. On top of that, these types of health nut type of items often found under supplements are just always going to be dubious.

More likely the cultural practice was not passed down after the massive change in food preservation about 125 years ago. In the United States, fermentation was a universally practiced method for the pickling of vegetables. This practice has been so reduced that the word "pickle" now only refers to cucumber preservation.
