I'm curious what you like and how you use them in food.

Fermented foods have good microbes in them while they are fermenting up until something kills them - they are still very much fermented though regardless of whether the microbes are alive or not. The fundamental alteration has already happened.

Now, if you're looking to eat them specifically for the microbes, and not for the flavour, then you'd have to look for something that has not had the microbes killed off, for sure.
