An interesting fact about yogurt is that it is one of the oldest known fermented foods in the world. Its origins can be traced back thousands of years to ancient Mesopotamia, which is present-day Iraq. 

The process of making yogurt involves the fermentation of milk by the action of bacteria, primarily lactic acid bacteria. These bacteria convert the lactose in milk into lactic acid, giving yogurt its characteristic tangy flavor and creamy texture. 

Yogurt is not only delicious but also packed with beneficial nutrients and live cultures that can promote good gut health when consumed regularly.
