What would you consider sauerkraut? I love the stuff, and just had the stuff for lunch. They had a hot dog bar with all the fixin's... I saw the 'kraut, and loaded my plate with that - and nothing else.

I also got some chick peas, and broccoli from the salad bar. Not a great lunch, but at least I didn't get the hot dog, roll, and cheese sauce that I so wanted!!!!!

it's pickled cabbage.. veggie all the way in my book!

Yep , cabbage is a vegetable.

Definitely veggie but loaded with salt. Be prepared for a little upward blip of water weight.

be sure to chew some gum after that lunch!

some sauerkraut is made with (pickled in?)white wine and sugar....

Due to the high sodium content, I buy sauerkraut only rarely (out of concern for my blood pressure, not really because of weight concerns) and I always read the labels to make I am picking the one with the least amount of salt. I always put it in a strainer at home and rinse it thoroughly with water, that way, there is a bit less salt.

I know this kraut was rinsed. Didn't have enough vinegar bite to it. It just tasted like cabbage to me. But Oh well... At least I got 1 cup of veggies in by eating it

Yes, I know I'm weird. My mother and sister will eat kraut the same way - right out of the can

No sugar in my recipe but check the label.

I remember when I craved sauerkraut juice ........Oh yeah I remember now I was pregnant.
