Yoghurt - History
Yoghurt is traditionally believed to be an invention of the Bulgars from Central Asia, although there is evidence of other cultured milk products in other cultures 4500 years ago. The Bulgars (also Hunno-Bulgars), were the first significant Turkic speaking people to migrate to Europe, starting from the 2nd century AD, eventually settling on the Balkans by the end of the 7th century AD. The earliest yoghurts were probably spontaneously fermented, perhaps by wild bacteria residing inside goat skin bags used for transportation.
The word derives from the Turkish yoğurt (pronounced [jɔˈurt]) deriving from the verb yoğurmak, which means "to blend", a reference to how yoghurt is made. The letter ğ is silent between back vowels in Modern Turkish, but was formerly pronounced as a voiced velar fricative [ɣ]. English pronunciation varies in different regions according to the local accent but common pronunciations include /ˈjɒgət/ and /ˈjoʊgɚt/.
Yoghurt remained primarily a food of India, Central Asia, Western Asia, South Eastern Europe and Central Europe until the 1900s, when a Russian biologist named Ilya Ilyich Mechnikov theorized that heavy consumption of yoghurt was responsible for the unusually long lifespans of Bulgarian peasants. Believing lactobacillus to be essential for good health, Mechnikov worked to popularize yoghurt as a foodstuff throughout Europe. It fell to a Spanish entrepreneur named Isaac Carasso to industrialise the production of yoghurt. In 1919 he started a commercial yoghurt plant in Barcelona, naming the business Danone after his son — the group trades as Dannon in the US.
Yoghurt with added fruit marmalade was invented (and patented) in 1933 in dairy Radlická Mlékárna in Prague. The original intention of this combination was to protect yoghurt better against decay.
Yoghurt was first commercially produced and sold in the United States in 1929 by Armenian immigrants, Rose and Sarkis Colombosian, whose family business later became Colombo Yogurt.
