Ever eat Genoa salami, or any of several other types of dry sausage,
that have a sort of sourish tang? Not unlike the tang of corned beef?
That's lactic acid, which probably originated in these products by
accident, when a lactobaccilus found its way in there. Nowadays the
lactobaccilus is added deliberately so as to give better control of the
process. In short, it's fermented. I always laugh at the commercial
bacteria stuff they add to such sausages, I think it's called something
like "Fermento". Sounds a bad 'un in a comic book ; )
