Many foods are made by the action of microbes from kingdom Monera, or Fungi.  In a group of two or three, prepare a plate artistically displaying an sample of a food that is made by a microbe.  For example, sourdough bread is made by the action of lactobacillus and Propionibacterium freudenreichii produces emmental cheese.  In the history of food, it seems, there was always someone who decided to try something that looked like it had gone bad and said,  "hey, a little off, but…not bad!"  And thus the birth of beer, bread, cheese, natto!
