euromaxx: The Truth about Germany - Kraut

[brewmiester11]

The sauerkraut that I had when I was stationed in Germany was the absolute worst that I have ever tasted. I love sauerkraut especially raw, but what I was served in Germany was very bland and way over cooked. What is the point?

[juxbertrand]

A trop manger de choucroute en famille, on devient suspect.

Aucun rapport avec la choucroute, je sais, je sors.

[deFlow1988]

I would make it through the Sauerkraut:-)

[Zellig]

Anyone know where i can buy decent saurkraut? And restaurant chains that would expand throughout us with reliable kraut, or store brands? better off making on my own? All the kraut ive tried kinda sucked.

[aitkenjoshua1]

@Zellig Definitely make it, it's not difficult at all.

[dieJodis]

@Zellig

Hengstenberg Sauerkraut i think is easy to gain for you but in germany that depends on your grocery store ^^

My mother fried one onion and smoked ham (sliced in little cubes).

You give the whole in a pot with the Kraut and grate one raw potato in it and cook the whole 15 mins with meat broth.

[brewmiester11]

@Zellig Look in the refrigerator section of your grocery store it will be in a plastic bag, try it raw, straight out of the bag like a salad or pickle, it should have a very slight crunch to it. There are 2 brands here in MN. both about the same the only difference is price. Frank"s is a little higher priced than the other and I can't remember the name right now. Try the raw sauerkraut and if you like that, then make your own if not, it just isn't for you. Some people just don't like it.

[simantov666]

the british are kown all over the world, as the country that got defeaded by ghaddaffi - a typical british household cant affort sauerkraut

[simantov666]

my champaign-pineapple-german sauerkraut is so delicious. the brits dont even know how to play soccer. they now get kicked ass by libya.

[MrPlonkas]

WHATS THE BACKGROUND MUSIC

[SuperTravis898]

suaerkraut is actaully Polish, that doesnt explain anyhting except the allies screwed up on there cultural facts

[PrincessLeia100]

Sauerkraut is polish? Wow. You must explain it's origins.

[SuperTravis898]

@PrincessLeia100 I read i a cultural book about europe that sauerkraut was Polish invinted, I cant believe everyhting i read but ive remebered that fact ever since

[Lintflas]

@SuperTravis898

Even the Russians and all eastern European countries eat sauerkraut, and every region of all those countries has it's own special sauerkraut recipe, but it could easily be true that the Poles invented it.

I'm German, and on my last visit to friends in Poland, they prepared the most delicious sauerkraut I've ever eaten in my life.

[simantov666]

@Lintflas eastern european sauerkraut is 4 your refuses - like british food

[simantov666]

@Lintflas thats because you buy in cheap shops. our bavarian kraut is still homemade - fährt zu den pollacken und schämt sich nicht

[simantov666]

@PrincessLeia100 if sauerkraut is polish - than the pope of rome is straight - LOL -forget it

[simantov666]

@SuperTravis898 sauerkraut is as polish - as hitler is the chief rabbi of jerusalem. those morons might steel any car, but not our kraut

[thrashinferno83]

i eat Sauerkraut like a russian guy drink his wodka

[simantov666]

@thrashinferno83 na da musst du ja an guaten stuhlgang haben - grüße aus bayern

[thrashinferno83]

@simantov666 wenn mal welches gibt dann scho richtig viel, gruß aus Franken

[JRbassman15]

We eat Sauerkraut every Sunday and I love it!!!

[1276epr]

I thought the term "Kraut" was considered an insult over there.....

[simantov666]

@1276epr eat yer burgers and leave us alone, and stick a cucumber into your anglophile ass.. mc donalds is the most cheap and insulting food on this planet. and our kraut is royal

[1276epr]

@simantov666 read my comment more carefully before you crap on me. I merely asked if Germans regarded word "Kraut" as derogatory. The commentator refers to Germans as "Krauts". Whether you guys enjoy sauerkraut, bathe in it, or give it away is no business of mine.

[Jon89309]

i am German and I hate Sauerkraut.

[simantov666]

@Jon89309 yo don kim noach bayern, und friß a guate oide hax´n mit am boairischm kraut. do schmeißt oba an jedn drecksdöner weg - ist natürlich etwas teurer

[simantov666]

sauerkraut will allways be top in germany. we prepare it today with pinaple and champaign - guten appetit!

[Berrymore84]

you'll find kimchi in every Korean household

[DJonX7]

[FUwogs]

wogs in germany?  fuckin bullshit!

[Ralastar]

FART.

[hcanuck7]

Using humour to destroy German culture.

[Patzy85]

wenn er Sauerkraut suchen will, sollte er mal in Ostdeutschland suchen. Da gibt es noch häufiger zu Klößen und Kassler Sauerkraut als Beilage... Oder Mauke mit Bratwurst und Sauerkraut... Was auch gut schmeckt, Erbsensuppe und Sauerkraut :)

[ZadorBador]

I never ate this shit .D

[DJonX7]

@ZadorBador its good on bavarian smokies XDDD

[SuicidalXlove1]

[moritzpbbarvencik]

Im German and ive never eaten sauerkraut before !!

[supreme475]

He is SOOO cute at 1:36

[DeGoile]

[pffan1000]

ich liebe sauerkraut und bratwurst

[hardstyle905]

ich hasse das zeug

[scevec15534]

well now im hungry ಠ_ಠ

[Lintflas]

Sauerkraut has ten times more vitamin C as an orange! This is what keeps Krauts healthy and smart! :D

[scevec15534]

@Lintflas nerd^^

[goldensassenach]

Great stuff! I found part of a recipe book my ancestor had.It is hand written in German and is from between 1819-1884 (from her birth/death dates} It has recipes for: sauerkraut,blood sausage,venison w/juniper berries,cinnamon stars (cookies) dandelion wine, and fish soup.I've only made the cookies which are fantastic.The blood sausage reads like: hang pig by back legs from tree.Place barrell beneath it and cut throat.Let blood completely drain.Stir blood every 1/2 hour,remove clots....

[Agent1W]

Just like we would say, 'Freedom Fries', I heard that back in WWI, we would call kraut 'liberty cabbage'.

I never liked kraut as a kid because I thought it was too sour. How much vinegar do you put in that stuff?

[Dredgion]

France is the new Kraut land

[wkndflyr]

Was ist den das fuer einTrottel...Geh, friss Deine Bangers and Mash und halt die Klappe, oder willst lieber Bread Pudding and Mint Jelly?

[transammike]

LOL at 1:20!

[Rolinck4Kanzler]

Nice, the French are the new Krauts^^

[Goodguuuy]

heh, nowadays I eat like 10kg of kraut every month ... Cheap, tasty, healthy!

[krautschmidt]

Sauerkraut is just another food Germany has contributed to the World's pantry. Pure German, here - love kraut, and I make my grandmother's Swabian recipe with apples and white wine....

[Howie262]

Dude sauerKraut is fukin delicious...

ill snack on that shit strait from the jar while im grillin up some Bratwurzt.

i think some people think is gross its name...

"sour Krout"

its not really sour, its just like a pickle, and pickles are really good too :)

I like to put it on sandwiches and stuff.

Whats also good if you cut up some apples, cut up some bratwurzt and stir some sauerkraut into a frying pan and cook it all up. Anyone will love that dish.

[faxi87]

well, i´m 22, i eat tons of kraut, it´s cheap and healthy and if you know how to cook it, it´s also quite tasty...but it´s definetly not only german, i guess half of europe eats this and russians, too.

[takadi]

Technically the whole world eats sauerkraut in some form if you count kimchi or suan cai

[aenntchen3]

gosh how I miss my Sauerkraut could eat it every day lol...

[IronManOfficialguy]

Well im american but im nearly full blood german. I love kraut myself it goes great on lots of food such as sausage and hotdogs. In fact its the only way I will even eat a hotdog is if I have kraut for it. I would have demolished that plate of kraut if offered to me. I doubt it has anything to do with my german heritage though. I just like it.

[Hhutuber]

I'm only eating Kraut in the Czech Republic^^

[doorcodad]

Ja, I was surprised when we had some German relatives visit us in the US. They don't eat traditional German food at all today! They eat more like Americans: Asian food, Italian food, health food. What is going on over there? I bin ein americaner, aber it habe Kraut gerne!

[7millimauser]

pork hocks with sourkraut. Excellent

[Mamakayi]

Ich liebe warme SAUERKRAUT mit Speck !! leckerrrrr....^^°^^ Sauerkraut soll gute für die Haut sein... :-)

I love warm Sauerkraut with bacon! ***** ^^°^^

Sauerkraut is supposed to be good for your skin... :-)p

[TheKraut88]

oh my god..............

[bozboy99]

this is good

[Kontowarnung]

The Germans are known all over the world as Krauts.

The Germans are known all over the world as Nazis.

The Germans are known all over the world for engineering.

The Germans are known all over the world for humorlessly.

The Germans are known all over the world for rigid discipline.

The Germans are known all over the world as car fanatics.

The Germans are known....

You decide it!

[MyHeartBeatsWest]

The Germans are known all over the world for their Kontos

[jonnek93]

humorlessly is wrong :)

[NotnaRed]

Damn... I'm hungry....

Schupfnudeln und Sauerkraut wären jetzt perfekt...

Verdammt... Ich konnte nich wiederstehen - hab mir ne Dose Sauerkraut geholt :D

[Sina14x3]

I hate kraut, i am German

[Geckon01]

we dont eat so much sauerkraut

[Nimduril]

The Stereotype of the Krauts is by far older than the WW2, infact it's a relict of the times before the tinned goods. The fermentation process of the Kraut doesn't only make it an easily storable good, it also restores tremendous amounts of Vitamin C in it. So for a long time traditional "Sauerkraut" was THE antiscorbutic agent. In England however the industrial revolution took place 50 years earlier, so while english sailors had canned goods, the germans still relied on their Kraut.

[JM2X4]

ich mag sauerkraut

besser als das mcdonaldszeugs

[TheCherry1994]

@JM2X4

und gesünder isses auch :D

[simantov666]

@JM2X4 i bet that the "thames-betty" prefers our kraut either, than refusing fish and chips

[cabstronaut]

Tastes good....when combined with other foods. All northern Europeans have a variation on the stuff....it's cheap, stores well and is nutritious. That it happens to taste really good with beer and pork products or cooked into casseroles is just a bonus. If the French consume more it's proof that it's good.

[SirSchranzALot]

haha im bavarian and damn, dude that made me hungry. time for some beer and kraut :V

[ullae456]

Haha, me too.

Sauerkraut = bestest dish.

[bloodsexgoreviolence]

bestest??? Oh mein Gott, get some grammatik! ;-)

[tumadrelanieves]

let me try btw paella and kraut and I'll for the first. the blond rasta guy is RAAAAAAIT!

[hazbizarai]

sauerkraut, few drops of olive oil and pepper... dream!

[ente1993]

I am german and I think that Sauerkraut tastes terrible. ÖRKS!!!

[Gerusapan]

This stuff is not bad. I like it. (but not too much)

By the way, to call a German "Kraut" is more a curse than a real word...

[k8t4ever]

The poor German families in past could fabricate it for themselves, which means it was cheap, they didn't have to buy it.

For many Germans it was the only affordable vitamin source during the entire winter.

So the Germans ate it maybe three times a week, but not because they liked it, they had no other choice.

That's the story.

[lynnhk6]

Kinda similar to "achar".

[RikuFuji]

maybe I'm a man and just don't know it :)

I don't like Sauerkraut.

[absprung]

Super!

[absprung]

Like This Stuff!!! :-)
