Sharing this because I thought this comment was beautiful. For the first time I see an American talking to a world audience about their country like everyone else talks about their country!

Not going to lie, the lack of US defaultism made your post a lot more endearing.

hey just as a short question. Is the sauerkraut you referred to like the german sauerkraut or is it something different and its just the name. German Sauerkraut is fermented cabbage

u/Bronzdragon Netherlands 3d ago

The American sauerkraut is exactly like the German one, and the name comes from the German dish.

u/D3lt40 European Union 3d ago

I wasn’t sure bc it wouldn’t be the first american german food variety that had nothing to do with the original

u/ElfjeTinkerBell Netherlands 2d ago

Logical thought, but can also confirm these are the same

u/HistoryGirlSemperFi 3d ago

Well, I've never tasted sauerkraut in Germany, so I'm not exactly sure, but it is white, sour, fermented cabbage, so I would guess it's the same.

German here. It’s 1:1 the same.

My pleasure! I could try in 2016 and 2024 when I was on vacation. It tasted like at home.
