Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar, often abbreviated as ACV, has a history that stretches back thousands of years. It all starts with the apple, one of the oldest cultivated fruits. The process of turning apples into vinegar is a tale of natural fermentation. The journey begins with apples being crushed to produce apple juice. This juice is then fermented into alcohol by natural yeasts, much like the process of making hard cider. But instead of stopping there, a second fermentation process occurs, where acetic acid bacteria convert the alcohol into acetic acid, giving us that characteristic tangy vinegar taste.

Zombies
Zombies have their roots in Haitian folklore. In Haitian Vodou, zombies are reanimated corpses brought back to life by a sorcerer or bokor. These zombies are not the flesh-eating monsters we see in modern media but are often depicted as mindless slaves, controlled by the will of their creator. The concept of zombies in Haitian culture is deeply tied to the history of slavery and oppression in the region, symbolizing the loss of autonomy and the ultimate dehumanization.
