00:00Many people said the Chinese people were wasteful because they threw bananas on the ground and did
00:04not eat them. This action, which looked wasteful, actually made him $200,000 a month. When the
00:12bananas were not ripe, workers picked them. The bananas were sweet and sour. To remove this taste,
00:19they put the bananas neatly in the ground. The microbes and the humidity in the soil
00:23turned the starch into sugar and the bananas became sweeter. After five days, the bananas became
00:30soft and full of smell. Workers stepped on the bananas with their feet, crushed the fruit and
00:36released all the juice and sugar. The air was full of fruit smell. Then they added malt. This was the
00:43key to fermentation because malt had yeast that turned sugar into alcohol. They mixed it and put
00:50the banana pulp into barrels, sealed them, and stored them in the fermentation room. After 20 days,
00:57the smell of fruit and alcohol came out. It was banana wine made 100% from bananas. When you drank it,
01:04it was sweet and a little sour. It tasted like fruit juice and also like light rice wine.
01:10So did you still think it was wasteful?
