I have one in my fridge. Unlucky for you, I live in Brazil. We
call it Christ's yeast. Unlike sourdough, it feeds on common sucrose
(cane sugar), needs a bit of flour or potato for nitrogen/mineral
requirements, and is very, very fast. It literally foams.
It is very resistant, I feed mine every 4-6 months.
Probably some Fleishman's yeast that went wild and shed the
"autodestruct" button genetically engineered into it.
