I remember hearing Sally Fallon say we (as a culture) drink soda with a sort of "body memory" (my words) about what a lacto-fermented soda would have supplied (think root beer or ginger beer, kombucha and more). Our bodies are craving what they are not getting, and the mimics are well-placed to entice us.
