well, some bacteria are used for food production like :
there are 2 types of food products :
*bacteria are used for the production of different food products like cheese, yogurt, soya sauce. and also used as a cofactor in the food.
like streptococcus thermophilous and lactobacillus bulgaricus (starter culture )play important role in the production of the yogurt
the streptococcus thermophilous inhibit the growth of the non-thermophilous (pathogenic bacteria) and these 2 bacteria also help the lowering of the pH (up to 4.5 ).
hope you got the point.
thanks
