What is microbial rancidity?

Microbial rancidity refers to the spoilage of fats and oils caused by the action of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi. These microbes break down fatty acids, leading to off-flavors and odors that are often described as sour or musty. This type of rancidity is common in perishable food items and can significantly affect their quality and safety. Proper storage conditions, including refrigeration and sealing, can help prevent microbial rancidity.
