who has the oldest starter in the world

So, who has the oldest starter in the world? The short, scientific answer is nobody. If you're a stickler for documentation, though, Böcker in Germany, Boudin in San Francisco, and possibly Kimuraya bakery in Japan have claims to the prize. Anecdotally, the oldest, maybe hardest to believe starter might have traces of DNA from Jesus Christ himself. But if microbiologists ever find a novel way to verify the mythological claims of starter origins, the Puratos Library in Belgium might have to build a bigger wing for the oldest, rarest mothers on Earth.
