Pasteurization was discovered by the French scientist [[Louis Pasteur]], who discovered that bacteria makes food spoil. They may be killed by simply boiling the product. However, as in milk, this often ruins the taste. Pasteur discovered that the milk does not need to be boiled, and if chilled immediately afterwards, this process is just as effective as boiling. Pasteurization is used to preserve [[milk]], [[beer]], [[cheese]], and other foods.
