Sauerkraut, yogurt, and wine are all preserved through the process of fermentation, which involves the use of microorganisms (such as bacteria or yeast) to convert the sugars in the food into acids, alcohol, or gases. This acidic or alcoholic environment helps to preserve the food and inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria.
