I am presently engaged in a silly argument.
The question is: Is sauerkraut a vegetable? I would appreciate any learned opinions. Thanks !!!!!!! |

If you define a vegetable as a something you can grow, you can't grow sauerkraut. (You can grow cabbage to make sauerkraut, however.) If you define a vegetable as a type of food, sauerkraut is a vegetable as much as sausage is a meat, or bread is a grain. -- Warren H. ========== Disclaimer: My views reflect those of myself, and not my employer, my friends, nor (as she often tells me) my wife.

In fact it's made of shreaded cabbage that's put in and aged in a barrel,
not sure if it's sal****er or something else, but when I was in Germany, the eating places outside of town would have a fresh barrel just outside the door and they'd get it from there for the orders of it and it was good too! -- The Lone Sidewalk Astronomer of Rosamond Telescope Buyers FAQ http://home.inreach.com/starlord "Warren" wrote in message ...

yes. cabbage is salted as it is pressed down into a crock. a cover put down into the
crock to hold the cabbage below the level of the juice (weighted down). it "works" itself over a week or more. but my Grma used to clean the scum that forms every couple of days. http://waltonfeed.com/old/sauer.html Ingrid "Starlord" wrote: In fact it's made of shreaded cabbage that's put in and aged in a barrel, not sure if it's sal****er or something else, but when I was in Germany, the eating places outside of town would have a fresh barrel just outside the door and they'd get it from there for the orders of it and it was good too! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List Manager: Puregold Goldfish List at http://list.lovemyoldhome.com/puregold/ WEBSITE AT: http://www.mu.edu/~buxtoni/puregold/home.html www.drsolo.com Solve the problem, dont waste energy finding who's to blame ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I receive no money, gifts, discounts or other compensation for all the damn work I do, nor for any of the recommendations I make.
