Welcome to the weekly podcast with longtime Anchorage Daily News horticulture writer Jeff Lowenfels and co-host Jonathan White. Consider this a supplement to Jeff's weekly ADN Gardening column and his popular series of books.
This week we'll be talking more about microorganisms! Have you ever wondered why certain foods and drinks taste the way they do? The answer is microbes!
This week, Jeff and Jonathan review new research investigating how microbes affect the taste of tea. They then discuss the important role of microbial diversity in cheese production.
Finally, researchers are taking a closer look at a recent study conducted in Alaska in which scientists observed changes in the diets of some arctic animals, particularly small animals such as voles.
