None of which requires actual mold. Even mushroom spores don't require manure for substrate. If your kimchi has mold in it, it needs to go in the compost! Marmite > Vegimite anyway.
True (about mold), but it's all essentially the same process: start a bacterial conversion (i.e.: spoiling) and then control/arrest the conversion before the "point of no return". Hundreds of cultures, over thousands of years, have discovered this concept - and the result is often damn tasty!
