Sauerkraut to Power Navy Menu Amid Record Bids
Sailors will get sauerkraut as a staple next year as bids rise over 70 percent to 1,090,000 pounds. The taste for sauerkraut grows with its vitamin content and lactic acid benefits noted since Captain Cook’s voyage. A homey recipe blends sauerkraut with green peppers and stuffing, and lemon juice preserves lactic acid, with a curry twist in a sour cream dressing.
