We don’t usually get sick from eating fermented foods like kefir and Kimchi, and it is known that there are some health benefits from eating them for our gut health. BUT we often get sick from drinking spoiled milk or eating rotting meat and vegetables. What is the difference between food being “fermented” and food being “spoiled”?

Good bacteria vs. bad bacteria. Fermented foods are infused with healthy bacteria which out-compete the bad stuff.
