Lots of foods are preserved using fermentation. It also adds value to raw foods that would sell "as is" of much lower cost.
Beer - it is the result of letting grain ferment in water.
Cheese - fermented milk.
Tofu - fermented soybean-paste.

If we are considering fermentation as yeast does it:
The resulting carbon dioxide is what makes bread dough rise at the bakery.
The resulting alcohol is used in making beer, wine, and ethanol for fuel.

WELL ITS USED IN PHOTOSYNTHESIS, WHICH PLANTS USE EVERYDAY TO GET FOOD.
AND IT IS USED IN THE CELL RESPIRATION CYCLE
HOPE THAT HELPS!
