#155 Add the Kraut

One of the last remaining foods that I’ve managed to elude since my child-hood has been sauerkraut. This has required a great deal of mental fortitude or more likely, stubbornness. It’s no easy task to grow up in a German family living near Milwaukee where sauerkraut is almost as abundant as water. So despite the smell and the name, I ate sauerkraut, on a bratwurst.... Say! I like sauerkraut! I would eat it on a train in the rain, in a boat with a goat, on a yacht with a brat. I will eat it here and there. I will eat it anywhere!

As a Minnesotan I love sauerkraut, but I could never order it from a guy wearing all that Packer's gear.
